Single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) allows the reconstruction of super-resolution images, but generally requires prior intense laser irradiation and in some cases additives to induce blinking of conventional fluorophores. We previously introduced a spontaneously blinking rhodamine fluorophore based on an intramolecular spirocyclization reaction for live-cell SMLM under physiological conditions. Here, we report a novel principle of spontaneous blinking in living cells, which utilizes reversible ground-state nucleophilic attack of intracellular glutathione (GSH) upon a xanthene fluorophore. Structural optimization afforded two pyronine fluorophores with different colors, both of which exhibit equilibrium (between the fluorescent dissociated form and the non-fluorescent GSH adduct form) and blinking kinetics that enable SMLM of microtubules in living cells. Furthermore, by using spontaneously blinking fluorophores working in the near-infrared (NIR) and green ranges, we succeeded in dual-color live-cell SMLM without the need for optimization of the imaging medium.
