Abstract
Provided herein are imaging probes and systems and methods employing such imaging probes for real-time, label-free, multiplexed imaging of RNAs in living cells. More particularly, aptamer-based sensors ('aptasensors') and molecular fuses comprising multiple aptasensors are genetically encoded imaging probes comprising RNA-target binding sequence and an intramolecular reconfiguration sequence. The probe is configured such that binding of a RNA target by the RNA-target binding sequence triggers the intramolecular reconfiguration sequence to reconfigure such that an optically detectable output is generated by the probe.
