A Fluorescent Rosamine Compound Selectively Stains Pluripotent Stem Cells

Abstract

The cell-by date: The fluorescent compound CDy1 selectively stains embryonic stem cells (see scheme). CDy1 was used to identify fibroblasts undergoing reprogramming to induced pluripotent stem cells prior to the expression of green fluorescent protein under the control of the Oct4 promoter.
