Human SA-beta-gal is an endogenous lysosomal enzyme expressed from GLB1, the catalytic domain of which is very different from that of E. coli beta-gal, a bacterial enzyme encoded by lacZ. However, existing chemical probes for this marker still lack the ability to distinguish human SA-beta-gal from beta-gal of other species, such as bacterial beta-gal, which can yield false positive signals. Here, we show a molecular design strategy to construct fluorescent probes with the above ability with the aid of structure-based steric hindrance adjustment catering to different enzyme pockets. The resulting probes normally work as traditional SA-beta-gal probes, but they are unique in their powerful ability to distinguish human SA-beta-gal from E. coli beta-gal, thus achieving species-selective visualization of human SA-beta-gal for the first time. NIR-emitting fluorescent probe KSL11 as their representative further displays excellent species-selective recognition performance in biological systems, which has been herein verified by testing in senescent cells, in lacZ-transfected cells and in E. coli-beta-gal-contaminated tissue sections of mice. Because of our probes, it was also discovered that SA-beta-gal content in mice increased gradually with age and SA-beta-gal accumulated most in the kidneys among the main organs of naturally aging mice, suggesting that the kidneys are the organs with the most severe aging during natural aging.
