Quantitative modeling and optimization of magnetic tweezers.
Magnetic tweezers are a powerful tool to manipulate single DNA or RNA molecules and to study nucleic acid-protein interactions in real time. Here, we have modeled the magnetic fields of permanent magnets in magnetic tweezers and computed the forces exerted on superparamagnetic beads from first principles. For simple, symmetric geometries the magnetic fields can be calculated semianalytically us...

we used dbsa and nano-magnetic for the synthesis of amido alkylnaphtols.
15 صفحه اولRecent advances in magnetic tweezers.
Since their first demonstration of manipulation and mechanical coiling of a single DNA molecule, magnetic tweezers have become a popular and widely used single-molecule manipulation technique. Magnetic tweezers have yielded a wealth of information on the elastic properties of (coiled) DNA and have provided critical insights into the dynamic activity of DNA-processing enzymes. Recent years have ...
متن کاملQuantitative high-resolution sensing of DNA hybridization using magnetic tweezers with evanescent illumination.
We applied the combined approach of evanescent nanometry and force spectroscopy using magnetic tweezers to quantify the degree of hybridization of a single synthetic single-stranded DNA oligomer to a resolution approaching a single-base. In this setup, the 200 nucleotide long DNA was covalently attached to the surface of an optically transparent solid support at one end and to the surface of a ...
متن کاملMagnetic Forces and DNA Mechanics in Multiplexed Magnetic Tweezers
Magnetic tweezers (MT) are a powerful tool for the study of DNA-enzyme interactions. Both the magnet-based manipulation and the camera-based detection used in MT are well suited for multiplexed measurements. Here, we systematically address challenges related to scaling of multiplexed magnetic tweezers (MMT) towards high levels of parallelization where large numbers of molecules (say 10(3)) are ...
