DNA serves as a versatile template for few-atom silver clusters and their organized self-
assembly. These clusters possess unique structural and photophysical properties that are …

Abstract NanoCluster Beacons (NCBs) are multicolor silver nanocluster probes whose
fluorescence can be activated or tuned by a proximal DNA strand called the activator. While …

Herein, we demonstrate that a new multicolor silver nanoclusters/graphene oxide (Ag
NCs/GO) hybrid material, upon target response, undergoes a configuration transformation …

As an important member of the aptamer family, split aptamers are used to enhance the
sensitivity of aptasensors by forming a sandwich structure with target molecules. Here, we …

Abstract Flap endonuclease 1 (FEN1), a ubiquitous enzyme involved in DNA repair and
replication, is overexpressed in highly proliferative cancer cells. FEN1 has been recognized …

Supramolecular chromophores form when a DNA traps silvers that then coalesce into
clusters with discrete, molecular electronic states. However, DNA strands are polymeric …

Silver molecules are chromophores with diverse spectra and rich photophysics, and DNA
strands act as ligands that develop specific molecular silver species. For example, C4AC4T …

Differential expression of RNA splice variants among individual cells accounts for cell
heterogeneity of gene expression, which plays a key role in the regulation of the immune …

Poisoning events concerning diarrhetic shellfish poisons (DSPs) are increasing continually.
It is extremely necessary to develop simple analysis methods for screening simultaneously …

Fluorescent silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) templated by DNA are promising label free
fluorophores with excellent photostability and tunable optical properties. Most of the reported …
