Article Abstract

A rapid and convenient fluorescence glyphosate (GLYP) biosensor was developed based on DNA-templated copper nanoparticles (DNA-CuNPs). In the absence of GLYP, the DNA-CuNPs were formed through the reduction of Cu by vitamin C (Vc). The DNA-CuNPs emitted intense fluorescence at 615 nm when being excited at 340 nm. In the presence of GLYP, GLYP can strongly chelate with Cu by the phosphate and carboxyl groups to decrease the amount of free Cu. Due to the lack of free Cu, DNA-CuNPs cannot be formed, which caused the fluorescence to decrease. The whole detection process of this proposed GLYP biosensor can be completed within 14 min. Titration experiments showed that this biosensor had a linear relationship for GLYP in the range 1 to 18 µM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.47 µM. This biosensor showed obvious selectivity among other pesticides, even between GLYP and organophosphorus pesticides. This biosensor performed well for GLYP detection in real samples with recoveries of 88.0-104.0%.

We report a RNA acylation strategy, namely, DNA-templated PNA-based RNA acylation, involving a DNA template and a peptide nucleic acid (PNA) strand. The DNA template is designed to hybridize with the accepting RNA and the donating PNA, so that the acyl group on the PNA is transferred to the 3'-end ribose hydroxyl group of the accepting RNA. This PNA system will provide a simple route for RNA acylation.

Detecting single point mutations, such as PIK3CA mutations, is vital for precision diagnostics but remains challenging due to subtle sequence differences. This study introduces a machine learning-assisted colorimetric biosensor that utilizes DNA-templated gold nanoparticle (AuNP) growth for sensitive and specific single point mutation detection. The biosensor employs a hairpin DNA probe that selectively hybridizes with mutant PIK3CA sequences.

In this work, we investigate the fundamental usability of fluorescent DNA-templated silver nanoclusters (DNA-AgNCs) as sensors for Point-of Care-Testing (PoCT) applications. We developed a microfluidic platform for the generation of droplets containing DNA-AgNCs in defined, different chemical environments. The droplets are read out fluorescently at two different emission wavelengths.

Constraining proximity-based drugs, such as proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs), into their bioactive conformation can significantly impact their selectivity and potency. However, traditional methods for achieving this often involve complex and time-consuming synthetic procedures. Here, we introduced an alternative approach by demonstrating DNA-templated spatially controlled PROTACs (DTACs), which leverage the programmability of nucleic acid-based self-assembly for efficient synthesis and offer precise control over inhibitors' spacing and orientation.

Introduction: Individual constitutions are classified into nine types in traditional Chinese medical theory, and qi stagnation constitution (QSC) manifests as disrupted Qi circulation and increased susceptibility to emotional disorders and cancers. However, as a pre-disease state mainly affecting women, the biological basis of QSC and its susceptible mechanism to related diseases are still unclear. Exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) are the stable regulators of gene expression and intercellular communication, and analysis of miRNAs enables us to understand the QSC better.
