Abstract
Redox signalling is increasingly recognized to play a crucial role in cellular and organismal physiology. Whilst we have made considerable advances in recent years with respect to understanding the roles and regulation of many different cellular redox species, research remains restricted by a lack of appropriate tools and techniques. Here we discuss the opportunities afforded by recently developed genetically encoded redox sensors and illustrate how they have already advanced our understanding.
