Energy Transfer Between i-Motif DNA Encapsulated Silver Nanoclusters and Fluorescein Amidite Efficiently Visualizes the Redox State of Live Cells.

Journal article Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany) · October 2024 The redox regulation, maintaining a balance between oxidation and reduction in living cells, is vital for cellular homeostasis, intricate signaling networks, and appropriate responses to physiological and environmental cues. Here, a novel redox sensor, bas ... Full text Cite

Tailed-Hoogsteen Triplex DNA Silver Nanoclusters Emit Red Fluorescence upon Target miRNA Sensing.

Journal article Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany) · March 2024 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNA molecules, typically 21‒22 nucleotides in size, which play a crucial role in regulating gene expression in most eukaryotes. Their significance in various biological processes and disease pathogenesis has led to considerable ... Full text Cite

Silver Nanoclusters Serve as Fluorescent Rivets Linking Hoogsteen Triplex DNA and Hairpin-Loop DNA Structures.

Journal article ACS nano · August 2022 Greater understanding of the mutual influence between DNA and the associated nanomaterial on the properties of each other can provide alternative strategies for designing and developing DNA nanomachines. DNA secondary structures are essential for encapsula ... Full text Cite
