[0002] In the past two decades, the innovation of luminescent materials has opened up new avenues for science and technology, and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) is one of the important ways. Non-luminescent materials in the state of separated molecules can induce strong fluorescence when they aggregate, which has the opposite effect to the luminescence quenching (ACQ) effect caused by molecular aggregation. According to the hard-hard acid-base principle that hard acids tend to bind to hard bases and soft acids tend to bind to soft bases, histidine (His) easily binds to Zn 2+ ,Cd 2+ ,Cu 2+ ,Ni 2+ ,Ag + Coordination occurs, and cysteine (Cys) is more likely to bind to Hg 2+ ,Pb 2+ ,Zn 2+ ,Cd 2+ Coordination occurs, tyrosine (Try) and Cu 2+ It is easier to coordinate and design the polypeptide sequence. Compared with other polypeptide probes, the polypeptide probe composed of amino acids has the advantages of excellent performance and simple synthesis.

[0007] The specific preparation method of the polypeptide fluorescent probe of the present invention is as follows: add dichlororesin to a polypeptide synthesis tube, add dichloromethane (DCM) thereto to swell the resin, and wash it with dimethylformamide (DMF). Add the corresponding amino acid mass (3.0eq.) and diethylenetriamine (DIEA) to react in a DMF solution for 2h. After the reaction is completed, wash with DMF and then use K's test (pyridine and ninhydrin reagent). Subsequently, the resin after the condensation reaction is deprotected from Fmoc for 15min, and washed with DMF solution and methanol solution respectively for K's test. The subsequent amino acid coupling is repeated according to the above steps, and the last amino acid is deprotected from Fmoc and then a tetraphenylethylene (TPE) derivative is added to react for 40min, and then washed and dried with DMF solution and methanol solution respectively. After the synthesis is completed, the polypeptide probe is cleaved from the resin with 87% TFA solution. First, treat with TFA solution at room temperature for 2h, filter, add ether for precipitation, centrifuge at 4000rpm, and dry to obtain a crude product. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
