Formation of SERS active nanoparticle assemblies via specific carbohydrate-protein interactions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An on/off SERS aggregation system has been designed to investigate carbohydrate-lectin interactions. Detection of the lectin ConA was achieved at pico molar levels. Discrimination was also demonstrated between two different carbohydrate moieties demonstrating the specific interaction between the carbohydrate and specific protein present.

Non-lithographic SERS substrates: tailoring surface chemistry for Au nanoparticle cluster assembly.
Near-field plasmonic coupling and local field enhancement in metal nanoarchitectures, such as arrangements of nanoparticle clusters, have application in many technologies from medical diagnostics, solar cells, to sensors. Although nanoparticle-based cluster assemblies have exhibited signal enhancements in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensors, it is challenging to achieve high reprod...
متن کاملMolecularly linked 3D plasmonic nanoparticle core/satellite assemblies: SERS nanotags with single-particle Raman sensitivity.
A fast, generic, and suspension-based route to highly SERS-active assemblies of noble metal nanoparticles (Au, Ag) with small core-satellite gaps and single-particle Raman sensitivity is presented. Rationally designed, heterobifunctional Raman reporters serve as molecular linkers for electrostatic conjugation of the small satellites to the large core.

Nanobiotechnology has provided promising novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies which capable to create a broad spectrum of nano-based imaging agents and medicines for human administrations. Several studies have demonstrated that the surface of nanomaterials is immediately coated with suspended proteins after contact with plasma or other biological fluids to form protein corona-nanoparticl...
متن کاملDetection of sequence-specific protein-DNA interactions via surface enhanced resonance Raman scattering.
We developed a new strategy to detect protein-DNA binding through surface enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS). Silver-plated DNA and gold nanoparticle assemblies were used to identify sequence-specific and concentration-dependent binding of a DNA cytosine-C5-methyltransferase and the eukaryotic transcriptional regulator, TATA binding protein. Proteins were identified through specific Ra...
متن کاملNanosensing protein allostery using a bivalent mouse double minute two (MDM2) assay.
The tumor suppressor protein, p53, is either mutated or absent in >50% of cancers and is negatively regulated by the mouse double minute (MDM2) protein. Understanding and inhibition of the MDM2-p53 interaction are, therefore, critical for developing novel chemotherapeutics, which are currently limited because of a lack of appropriate study tools. We present a nanosensing approach to investigate...
