Monitoring i-motif transitions through the exciplex emission of a fluorescent probe incorporating two (Py)A units.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pairs of pyrene-modified deoxyadenosine ((Py)A) units induce a stable interstrand i-motif structure, which can be characterized by a change in the fluorescence λ(max), with an exciplex emission that is not observable in its single-strand structure.

Fluorescence modification of the AAAA (4A) loop: toward a probe of the structural dynamics of the i-motif of the retinoblastoma gene.
Systematic modification of the 4A loop region of the Rb gene with (Py)A fluorophore units allows discrimination of the fluorescence signals corresponding to structural dynamics from single-stranded to i-motif structures.
متن کاملA fast-responsive mitochondria-targeted fluorescent probe detecting endogenous hypochlorite in living RAW 264.7 cells and nude mouse.
A very fast-responsive fluorescent probe PZ-Py for imaging mitochondrial HClO/ClO(-), with a relatively long emission wavelength, was prepared. The limit of detection was evaluated to be 17.9 nM. Moreover, the probe PZ-Py was successfully applied in the imaging of endogenous HClO/ClO(-) in the mitochondria of RAW 264.7 cells and living nude mouse.
متن کاملFluorescence spectroscopic study to characterize and monitor TEOS based sol-gel process for development of optical biosensors
Development of optical biosensors is an active area of research in the field of medical technology. Sol-gel matrices made from alkoxide silicates, tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) appear to be suitable glassy host matrix for the sensing system. However, the major problem in the TEOS based sol-gel matrices is stability. So it is important to study dopant-matrix interaction as a function of time. ...
متن کاملNew Concepts of Fluorescent Probes for Specific Detection of DNA Sequences: Bis-Modified Oligonucleotides in Excimer and Exciplex Detection
The detection of single base mismatches in DNA is important for diagnostics, treatment of genetic diseases, and identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms. Highly sensitive, specific assays are needed to investigate genetic samples from patients. The use of a simple fluorescent nucleoside analogue in detection of DNA sequence and point mutations by hybridisation in solution is described ...
متن کاملFluorescence imaging of siRNA delivery by peptide nucleic acid-based probe.
We report on the use of a peptide nucleic acid (PNA)-based fluorescent probe for the analysis of siRNA delivery to living cells. The probe, Py-AA-TO, possesses thiazole orange (TO) and pyrene moieties in the C- and N-termini of PNA, and can function as a light-up probe capable of selective binding to 3'-overhanging nucleotides of target siRNAs. The affinity-labeling of the siRNAs with Py-AA-TO ...
