Role of spacer in single- or two-step FRET: studies in the presence of two connected cryptands with properly chosen fluorophores.
Two cryptand molecules are connected via p-xyloyl, benzene-1,4-dicarbolyol and 9,10-dimethylene anthracene. Each cryptand is further derivatized with fluorophores such that electronic absorption of one fluorophore overlaps emission of the other. This way, three different systems L(1), L(2) and L(3) have been synthesized to get a better view of the effect on the distance in single- and two-step ...
متن کاملFluorescence - enhancement with different ionic inputs in a cryptand - based multi - receptor signalling system
Two molecules of a laterally non-symmetric aza cryptand have been attached to 9,10-dimethylanthracene to obtain a multi-receptor fluorescent signalling system in the “receptor–spacer–fluorophore–spacer–receptor” format. In the absence of a metal ion, weak fluorescence is observed upon excitation of the anthryl group owing to efficient photo-induced electron transfer (PET) of the lone pair of N ...
متن کاملMetal ion binding and the folding of the hairpin ribozyme.
The hairpin ribozyme comprises two formally unpaired loops carried on two arms of a four-way helical RNA junction. Addition of divalent metal ions brings about a conformational transition into an antiparallel structure in which there is an intimate association between the loops to generate the active form of the ribozyme. In this study, we have used fluorescence resonance energy transfer to ana...
متن کاملCryptand derived fluorescence signaling systems for sensing Hg(II) ion: A comparative study.
Two laterally non-symmetric aza-oxa cryptands have been derivatized with the electron-withdrawing fluorophore, 7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole to obtain the corresponding mono-, bis- and tris-products. In each case, no appreciable emission is observed when the fluorophore is excited due to an efficient photoinduced intramolecular electron transfer (PET) from the lone pair on nitrogen present in t...
متن کاملIntermolecular approach to metal ion indicators based on polymer phase transitions coupled to fluorescence resonance energy transfer.
An approach to ratiometric fluorescence detection of quenching metal ions was devised by copolymerizing N-isopropylacrylamide with small percentages of bipyridine and amine monomers. The copolymer was divided into two portions. The amine group on one portion was functionalized with AlexaFluor555 (donor fluorophore) and the other with AlexaFluor647 (acceptor fluorophore). The indicator consists ...
