报告摘要：
Interfacing DNA with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) has produced a diverse range of biosensors, imaging agents, drug delivery systems, and new materials. AuNPs are particularly attractive because of their low toxicity and unique optical, electric and catalytic properties. Using fluorescently labeled oligonucleotides as probes, we measured the kinetics of DNA adsorption, desorption as well as adsorption isotherm as a function of salt, pH, and temperature. An important application of such fundamental studies is the attachment of DNA to AuNPs. Highly efficient DNA adsorption can be achieved at low pH and freezing. In addition, we studied aptamer-based sensors using AuNPs for signal production and revealed some potential artifacts. In the second part of the talk, our recent work on selection of DNA aptamers for binding to small molecular targets will be presented.
