R. China Supporting Information Experimental Generals. 1H NMR spectra were recorded using a Bruker Avance AV 400 spectrometer and the solvents as internal standards. LR and HR-ESI MS spectra were measured on Waters UPLC/Quattro Premier XE and Agilent 6210 LC/MSD TOF mass spectrometers, respectively. Silica gel 60 Å (reagent pure, Qingdao Haiyang Chemical Co. Ltd) was used for column chromatography. Analytical thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was performed on silica gel plates 60 GF254. Detection on TLC was made by use of iodine and UV (254 or 365 nm). UV-Vis and Fluorescence spectra were measured on a Perkin Elmer Lambda 25 spectrophotometer and LS55 spectrofluorimeter, respectively. EYPC, pyranine and lucigenin were purchased from Sigma Chemical Co. (St Louis, USA), whereas calcein was from J&K Chemical Co. (Beijing, China). All the other chemicals and reagents were obtained from commercial sources and used without further purification. Buffer solutions were prepared in triply distilled deionized water.
