Abstract
Serotonin (5-HT) is an important signaling monoamine and neurotransmitter. We report structure-guided engineering of a green fluorescent, genetically encoded serotonin sensor (G-GESS) from a 5-HT-binding lipocalin in the soft tick Argas monolakensis. G-GESS shows fast response kinetics and high affinity, specificity, brightness and photostability. We used G-GESS to image 5-HT dynamics in cultured cells, brain slices and behaving mice.
