Single-step electronic detection of femtomolar DNA by target-induced strand displacement in an electrode-bound duplex.
We report a signal-on, electronic DNA (E-DNA) sensor that is label-free and achieves a subpicomolar detection limit. The sensor, which is based on a target-induced strand displacement mechanism, is composed of a "capture probe" attached by its 5' terminus to a gold electrode and a 5' methylene blue-modified "signaling probe" that is complementary at both its 3' and 5' termini to the capture pro...
متن کاملDynamic DNA Assemblies Mediated by Binding-Induced DNA Strand Displacement
Dynamic DNA assemblies, including catalytic DNA circuits, DNA nanomachines, molecular translators, and reconfigurable nanostructures, have shown promising potential to regulate cell functions, deliver therapeutic reagents, and amplify detection signals for molecular diagnostics and imaging. However, such applications of dynamic DNA assembly systems have been limited to nucleic acids and a few s...
متن کاملKinetic Characterization of Single Strand Break Ligation in Duplex DNA by T4 DNA Ligase
T4 DNA ligase catalyzes phosphodiester bond formation between juxtaposed 5'-phosphate and 3'-hydroxyl termini in duplex DNA in three steps: 1) enzyme-adenylylate formation by reaction with ATP; 2) adenylyl transfer to a 5'-phosphorylated polynucleotide to generate adenylylated DNA; and 3) phosphodiester bond formation with release of AMP. This investigation used synthetic, nicked DNA substrates...
متن کاملDuplex-single strand denaturing transition in DNA oligomers
We have measured the temperature driven denaturing, or melting transition in poly d(A)-poly d(T) DNA oligomers of various lengths in different buffer conditions. Our findings are in clear disagreement with two state, reaction kinetics model, and we find that the so-called zipper model, where denaturing proceeds through opening of the duplex at the ends describes well the temperature dependence ...
متن کاملStrand displacement and duplex invasion into double-stranded DNA by pyrrolidinyl peptide nucleic acids.
The so-called acpcPNA system bears a peptide backbone consisting of 4'-substituted proline units with (2'R,4'R) configuration in an alternating combination with (2S)-amino-cyclopentane-(1S)-carboxylic acids. acpcPNA forms exceptionally stable hybrids with complementary DNA. We demonstrate herein (i) strand displacements by single-stranded DNA from acpcPNA-DNA hybrids, and by acpcPNA strands fro...
