The expression of the genetic information on protein is achieved by mitochondrial RNA (mtRNA). However, mtRNA tracking in biological systems is bound due to the lack of an effective method. To solve this pressing problem, we construct a low molecular weight probe MR-IDE to track endogenous mtRNA in the cancer cells and macrophages for the first time.
