| 摘要 |
This invention relates to a method for measuring autophagy in cells, comprising using, as a probe reagent, a single fluorescent protein, to measure a change in fluorescence properties of the fluorescent probe reagent depending on pH changes associated with autophagy, thereby determining the presence or activity of autophagy, wherein the single fluorescent protein is resistant to degrading enzyme activity in the lysosome or vacuole of the cell, it is not denatured or inactivated under acidic to neutral pH environment, and it is capable of changing excitation spectra or fluorescence spectra when located under the environments of acidic region and neutral region.
