Abstract

In contrast to proteins, no intrinsically fluorescent RNA is known to exist in nature. In this issue, a new, red-shifted aptamer–fluorophore complex for RNA imaging that has enhanced photostability is described. The crystal structure of this complex reveals a novel form of RNA small-molecule recognition.
