Probing biomolecular interactions using surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy: label-free protein detection using a G-quadruplex DNA aptamer.

چکیده
We demonstrate a strategy for label-free protein detection through monitoring the Surface Enhanced Raman Spectrum of an aptamer probe attached to a gold nanoshell. Low limit of detection and minimal non-specific binding show potential for in vitro and in vivo assays.

Direct detection of aptamer-thrombin binding via surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy.
In this study, we exploit the sensitivity offered by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) for the direct detection of thrombin using the thrombin-binding aptamer (TBA) as molecular receptor. The technique utilizes immobilized silver nanoparticles that are functionalized with thiolated thrombin-specific binding aptamer, a 15-mer (5'-GGTTGGTGTGGTTGG-3') quadruplex forming oligonucleotide. In ...
متن کاملA novel label-free cocaine assay based on aptamer-wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes
Objective(s): This paper describes a selective and sensitive biosensor based on the dissolution and aggregation of aptamer wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes. We report on the direct detection of aptamer–cocaine interactions, namely between a DNA aptamer and cocaine molecules based on near-infrared absorption at λ807. Materials and Methods: First a DNA aptamer recognizing cocaine was non-co...
متن کاملLabel-free fluorescent detection of thrombin using G-quadruplex-based DNAzyme as sensing platform.
We report herein a label-free and sensitive fluorescent method for detection of thrombin using a G-quadruplex-based DNAzyme as the sensing platform. The thrombin-binding aptamer (TBA) is able to bind hemin to form the G-quadruplex-based DNAzyme, and thrombin can significantly enhance the activity of the G-quadruplex-based DNAzyme. The G-quadruplex-based DNAzyme is found to effectively catalyze ...

متن کاملDevelopment of an electrochemical surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (EC-SERS) aptasensor for direct detection of DNA hybridization.
Rapid detection of disease biomarkers at the patient point-of-care is essential to timely and effective treatment. The research described herein focuses on the development of an electrochemical surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (EC-SERS) DNA aptasensor capable of direct detection of tuberculosis (TB) DNA. Specifically, a plausible DNA biomarker present in TB patient urine was chosen as the mo...
