Polyelectrolyte-assisted transconformation of a stem-loop DNA.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A cationic copolymer triggered dimerization of a self-complementary stem-loop DNA. The dimerization was faster than spontaneous dissociation of the dimer. Reversible transformation between stem-loop and dimer structures was driven by switching on/off copolymer activity.

Polyelectrolyte multilayer-assisted fabrication of non-periodic silicon nanocolumn substrates for cellular interface applications.
Recent advances in nanostructure-based biotechnology have resulted in a growing demand for vertical nanostructure substrates with elaborate control over the nanoscale geometry and a high-throughput preparation. In this work, we report the fabrication of non-periodic vertical silicon nanocolumn substrates via polyelectrolyte multilayer-enabled randomized nanosphere lithography. Owing to layer-by...
متن کاملThe superiority of paracostal endoscopic-assisted gastropexy over open incisional and belt loop gastropexy in dogs: a comparison of three prophylactic techniques
Prophylactic gastropexy is a procedure that prevents the occurrence of a life threatening condition known as gastric dilation and volvulus (GDV) in dogs. The objective of this study was to compare incisional, belt loop and minimally invasive endoscopically assisted gastropexy by evaluating different parameters such as surgical time, length of scar and score of pain in dogs. Twenty-one healthy, ...
متن کاملStem-loop DNA-assisted silicon nanowires-based biochemical sensors with ultra-high sensitivity, specificity, and multiplexing capability.
A class of stem-loop DNA-assisted silicon nanowires (SiNWs)-based fluorescent biosensor is presented in this report. Significantly, the sensor enables rapid and sensitive detection of DNA targets with a concentration as low as 1 pM. Moreover, the large planar surface of SiNWs facilitates simultaneous assembly with different DNA strands, which is favorable for multiplexed DNA detection. On the o...
متن کاملSynthesis and electroactivated addressing of ferrocenyl and azido-modified stem-loop oligonucleotides on an integrated electrochemical device
We report a strategy to address stem-loop oligonucleotides on a gold surface in order to develop a robust and ultra-sensitive integrated electrochemical DNA sensor. The probe immobilization relies on the potential-assisted copper-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition. Firstly, a tetrathiol-hexynyl derivative was used to introduce alkyne functions on the electrode surface. This anchor proved its ...
متن کاملSequence Variations of Mitochondrial DNA Displacement-Loop in Iranian Indigenous Sheep Breeds
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been used extensively to study population genetics because it has the unique features of maternal inheritance, a relatively fast rate of evolution and lack of recombination. A total of 82 unrelated sheep from 10 Iranian indigenous sheep breeds were investigated to determinate the maternal genetic diversity using a sequence of a 685 bp segment of the displacement lo...
