Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) is a potent lipid chemoattractant driving leukocyte migration and neutrophil swarming, but methods for its real-time detection are lacking. Here, the authors develop GEM-LTB4, a genetically encoded fluorescent biosensor, and use it to visualize leukocyte-derived LTB4 gradients.
