A ratiometric genetically encoded voltage indicator (GEVI) would be desirable for tracking transmembrane voltage changes in the presence of sample motion. We performed combinatorial multi-site mutagenesis on a cyan-excitable red fluorescent protein to create the bright and monomeric mCyRFP3, which proved to be uniquely non-perturbing when fused to the GEVI ASAP3. The green/red ratio from ASAP3-mCyRFP3 (ASAP3-R3) reported voltage while correcting for motion artifacts, allowing the visualization of membrane voltage changes in contracting cardiomyocytes and throughout the cell cycle of motile cells.
