Protein-targeted corona phase molecular recognition
Corona phase molecular recognition (CoPhMoRe) uses a heteropolymer adsorbed onto and templated by a nanoparticle surface to recognize a specific target analyte. This method has not yet been extended to macromolecular analytes, including proteins. Herein we develop a variant of a CoPhMoRe screening procedure of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and use it against a panel of human blood prot...
متن کاملNeurotransmitter detection using corona phase molecular recognition on fluorescent single-walled carbon nanotube sensors.
Temporal and spatial changes in neurotransmitter concentrations are central to information processing in neural networks. Therefore, biosensors for neurotransmitters are essential tools for neuroscience. In this work, we applied a new technique, corona phase molecular recognition (CoPhMoRe), to identify adsorbed polymer phases on fluorescent single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) that allow fo...
متن کاملExperimental Tools to Study Molecular Recognition within the Nanoparticle Corona
Advancements in optical nanosensor development have enabled the design of sensors using synthetic molecular recognition elements through a recently developed method called Corona Phase Molecular Recognition (CoPhMoRe). The synthetic sensors resulting from these design principles are highly selective for specific analytes, and demonstrate remarkable stability for use under a variety of condition...
متن کاملProtein corona – from molecular adsorption to physiological complexity
In biological environments, nanoparticles are enshrouded by a layer of biomolecules, predominantly proteins, mediating its subsequent interactions with cells. Detecting this protein corona, understanding its formation with regards to nanoparticle (NP) and protein properties, and elucidating its biological implications were central aims of bio-related nano-research throughout the past years. Her...
متن کاملTargeted Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Protein Unfolding
The usefulness of targeted molecular dynamics (TMD) for the simulation of large conformational transitions is assessed in this work on the unfolding process of chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 (CI2). In TMD the force field is supplemented with a harmonic restraint which promotes either the increase of the conformational distance from the native state or the decrease of the distance from a target unfold...
