چکیده
A simple and universal quencher-free molecular beacon (MB) with low background fluorescence is developed based on an intermolecular G-quadruplex signaling probe. Unlike previous fluorescent MB strategies, it can function without any fluorophore and quencher modifications on its hairpin sequence.

Intermolecular G-quadruplex-based universal quencher free molecular beaconw
Molecular beacons (MBs) have been widely used in various areas. However, they still suffer from intrinsic limitations in practical application. For instance, tedious and unavoidable optimization of the MB often requires the synthesis of several MBs with different sequences and labels, which greatly increases the experimental cost and complexity, especially for those with multi-fluorogen or mult...
متن کاملPrincipal factors that determine the extension of detection range in molecular beacon aptamer/conjugated polyelectrolyte bioassays.
A strategy to extend the detection range of weakly-binding targets is reported that takes advantage of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based bioassays based on molecular beacon aptamers (MBAs) and cationic conjugated polyelectrolytes (CPEs). In comparison to other aptamer-target pairs, the aptamer-based adenosine triphosphate (ATP) detection assays are limited by the relatively we...
متن کاملResolution of a structural competition involving dimeric G-quadruplex and its C-rich complementary strand
The resolution of the dimeric intermolecular G-quadruplex/duplex competition of the telomeric DNA sequence 5'-TAG GGT TAG GGT-3' and of its complementary 5' ACC CTA ACC CTA-3' is reported. To achieve this goal, melting experiments of both sequences and of the mixtures of these sequences were monitored by molecular absorption, molecular fluorescence and circular dichroism spectroscopies. Molecul...
متن کاملG-Quadruplex DNAzyme Molecular Beacon for Amplified Colorimetric Biosensing of Pseudostellaria heterophylla
With an internal transcribed spacer of 18 S, 5.8 S and 26 S nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA ITS) as DNA marker, we report a colorimetric approach for authentication of Pseudostellaria heterophylla (PH) and its counterfeit species based on the differentiation of the nrDNA ITS sequence. The assay possesses an unlabelled G-quadruplex DNAzyme molecular beacon (MB) probe, employing complementary sequen...
متن کاملConjugated Polymers Combined with a Molecular Beacon for Label-Free and Self-Signal-Amplifying DNA Microarrays
DOI: 10.1002/adfm.200901175 A conjugated polymer (CP) and molecular-beacon-based solid-state DNA sensing system is developed to achieve sensitive, label-free detection. A novel conjugated poly(oxadiazole) derivative exhibiting amine and thiol functional groups (POX-SH) is developed for unique chemical and photochemical stability and convenient solid-state on-chip DNA synthesis. POX-SH is solubl...
