Amperometric detection of DNA hybridization on a gold surface depends on the orientation of oligonucleotide chains

Abstract

We tested the possibility of amperometric detection of DNA hybridization on a gold surface influenced by the immobilization of oligonucleotide giving different orientations of single stranded DNA relative to the gold surface. The DNA sensor was fabricated by chemisorption of 18-mer oligonucleotide modified by a phosphorothioate group either at its 3' or both 3' and 5' terminal. After immobilization of oligonucleotide to the gold support, the sensor was immersed in 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) solution. Further chemisorption of MUA resulted in approximately 10-fold increase of resistance of the organic layer. Addition of complementary oligonucleotide resulted in an increase of conductivity for DNA sensor oriented perpendicular to the gold support (DNA with one thiol group), while the conductance decreased for DNA sensor with single stranded DNA oriented parallel to the gold support (with DNA modified by thiol groups at both 3' and 5' terminals). Addition of non-complementary chain resulted a slight decrease or no change of sensor conductivity. The hybridization process at both types of DNA orientations is not cooperative and can be described by Langmuir isotherms. The hybridization event on gold support has been confirmed by...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
