Abstract

Chromobodies are nanobodies genetically fused to fluorescent proteins, which were developed to visualize endogenous intracellular antigens. These versatile bioimaging nanotools can also be used to detect cell surface epitopes, and we describe here how we use them as an alternative to conjugated antibodies. This way, we routinely test the binding efficiency of nanobodies for their cognate cell surface antigens, before integrating them as sensing domains into complex synthetic receptor architectures.
