TMR DN is a probe, the 5-carboxy tetramethylrhodamine (TMR) linked with a quencher moiety, dinitroaniline (DN), enabling contact quenching, non-toxic for cells, and capable cell membrane penetration.

The core of the molecule is represented by an aromatic fragment bearing a negatively charged carboxylic group, it possesses bright fluorescence properties, and at the same time, it reduces nonspecific binding to genomic DNA or RNA.

RNA-based sensors and TMR DN are used for intracellular visualization of mRNA and rRNA in live prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells. Tandem repeat aptamers (e.g., sulforhodamine-binding RNA aptamer (SRB-2)) may provide an advantage for the visualization of less stable RNA and those of low content quantities in cells. The advantage of the SRB-2/TMR DN system is its high brightness, comparable to GFP (green fluorescent protein), showing a smaller complex size. SRB-2 is also orthogonal to Spinach/Broccoli aptamers, and no crossreactivity between aptamers and ligands (TMR DN and DFHBI ((3,5-difluoro-4-hydroxybenzylidene)) occurs, thus TMR DN and SRB-2 can be used along with the other probe/aptamer pairs for visualization and dynamic imaging in parallel for several RNA [1]. The excitation and emission maxima of the complex SRB-2/TMR DN are 561 and 587 nm, respectively, lying in the orange region of the spectrum where the cellular auto-fluorescence is low [2].
