Enzyme-responsive reporter molecules for selective localization and fluorescence imaging of pathogenic biofilms.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pathogenic bacteria and their biofilm formation are responsible for a broad spectrum of microbial infections. A novel enzyme-responsive reporter molecule (ERM-1), which can specifically recognize AmpC β-lactamase (Bla) in drug resistant bacteria, has been developed to enable the selective localization of biofilms.

متن کاملCharacterization of Bacillus subtilis Colony Biofilms via Mass Spectrometry and Fluorescence Imaging
Colony biofilms of Bacillus subtilis are a widely used model for studying cellular differentiation. Here, we applied matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) to examine cellular and molecular heterogeneity in B. subtilis colony biofilms. From B. subtilis cells cultivated on a biofilm-promoting medium, we detected two cannibalistic factors not found in ...
متن کاملDetection and Cellular Imaging of Human Cancer Enzyme Using a Turn-On, Wavelength-Shiftable, Self-Immolative Profluorophore
UNLABELLED A frontier area in the development of activatable (turn-on) fluorescence-based probes is that concerned with rapid and selective stimulus triggering of probe activation so as to allow for biomarker identification and cellular imaging. The work here is concerned with a cloaked fluorophore composed of a reporter whose fluorescence is efficiently quenched by it being bound to an activat...

Background: Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a novel recombinant eukaryotic expression system with many advantages including fast growth rate, rapid scalability, absence of human pathogens and the ability to fold and assemble complex proteins accurately, however, obstacle relatively low expression level necessitates optimizing foreign gene expression in this system. The Green Fluorescent Protein (G...
متن کاملFluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer Systems in Supramolecular Macrocyclic Chemistry.
The fabrication of smart materials is gradually becoming a research focus in nanotechnology and materials science. An important criterion of smart materials is the capacity of stimuli-responsiveness, while another lies in selective recognition. Accordingly, supramolecular host-guest chemistry has proven a promising support for building intelligent, responsive systems; hence, synthetic macrocycl...
