sulfo-Cyanine5 TCO is a water-soluble far-red fluorescent dye derived from sulfo-Cyanine5 and functionalized with a trans-cyclooctene (TCO) group. The molecule is designed for rapid and highly selective bioorthogonal labeling of tetrazine-containing biomolecules via the inverse electron-demand Diels—Alder (IEDDA) reaction.

The sulfo-Cyanine5 fluorophore belongs to the family of cyanine dyes emitting in the far-red region of the spectrum and is characterized by high molar absorptivity, a good quantum yield, and excellent photostability. The presence of two sulfonate groups provides high water solubility and reduces nonspecific interactions with biomolecules, making the dye well-suited for biological applications.

The trans-cyclooctene moiety enables exceptionally fast reaction kinetics with tetrazines, allowing efficient labeling at low reagent concentrations and under mild conditions, including experiments with live cells.
