Single Molecule Fluorescent Colocalization of Split Aptamers for Ultrasensitive Detection of Biomolecules

Analytical Chemistry

Abstract

Single-molecule fluorescence imaging is a promising strategy for biomolecule detection. However, the accuracy of single-molecule method is often compromised by the false-positive events at the ultralow sample levels that are caused by the nonspecific adsorption of the fluorescent labeled probe and other fluorescent impurities on the imaging surface. Here, we demonstrate an ultrasensitive single molecule detection assay based on dual-color fluorescent colocalization of spilt aptamers that was implemented to the measurement of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The ATP aptamer was split into two fragments and labeled with green and red dye molecules, respectively. When the two probes of split aptamers were brought together by the target ATP molecule, the two colors of fluorescence of two probes were simultaneously detected through two channels and projected to the correlated locations in the two halves of image. The colocalizaiton imaging of two split apatamer probes greatly excluded the false detection of biomolecules that was usually caused by the fluorescent noise of single nonbound aptamer probes and impurities, and further improved the accuracy of measurement. The assay showed excellent selectivity and high sensitivity for ATP de...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.
