Fluorescence-quenching-based enzyme-activity assay by using photon upconversion.
Enzyme-activity assays are used, for example, for screening enzyme inhibitors and activators to discover novel drug candidates. A homogeneous assay principle for hydrolyzing enzymes based on a double-labeled fluorogenic substrate is commonly employed and is suitable for high-throughput screening. This separation-free assay concept relies on the strong distance dependency of fluorescence resonan...
متن کاملFluorescence quenching of carbon nitride nanosheet through its interaction with DNA for versatile fluorescence sensing.
This work investigates the interaction of carbon nitride nanosheet (CNNS), a recently developed two-dimensional nanomaterial, with DNA and its fluorescence quenching mechanism on fluorophore labeled single-stranded DNA probes. The static quenching through the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) from the excited fluorophore to the conductive band of CNNS is identified. Utilizing the affinity ch...
متن کاملChlorophyll fluorescence quenching by xanthophylls
The interactions of the xanthophylls zeaxanthin, antheraxanthin and violaxanthin with chlorophyll, which are relevant for the chlorophyll fluorescence quenching in the non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) process in green plants, are investigated by means of quantum chemical methods. In particular, we use a hybrid approach consisting of time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) and configur...
متن کاملEnhancement and quenching of single-molecule fluorescence.
We present an experimental and theoretical study of the fluorescence rate of a single molecule as a function of its distance to a laser-irradiated gold nanoparticle. The local field enhancement leads to an increased excitation rate whereas nonradiative energy transfer to the particle leads to a decrease of the quantum yield (quenching). Because of these competing effects, previous experiments s...
متن کاملProbing the structure and dynamics of a DNA hairpin by ultrafast quenching and fluorescence depolarization.
DNA hairpins have been investigated in which individual adenines were replaced by their fluorescent analog 2-aminopurine (2AP). The temperature dependence of the time evolution of polarized emission spectra was monitored with picosecond time resolution. Four isotropic decay components for each oligonucleotide indicated the coexistence of at least four conformations. The fluorescence for three o...
