Fluorecently labeled bionanotransporters of nucleic acid based on carbon nanotubes [PDF]

open access: yesUkrainian Journal of Physics, 2009, Vol. 54, no. 1-2, pp. 207-215, 2012
Here we propose the approach to design of the new type of hybrids of oligonucleotides with fluorescein-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes. The approach is based on stacking interactions of functionalized nanotubes with pyrene residues in conjugates of oligonucleotides.

What Controls the Hybridization Thermodynamics of Spherical Nucleic Acids?* [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2015
The hybridization of free oligonucleotides to densely packed, oriented arrays of DNA modifying the surfaces of spherical nucleic acid (SNA)-gold nanoparticle conjugates occurs with negative cooperativity; i.e., each binding event destabilizes subsequent binding events. DNA hybridization is thus an ever-changing function of the number of strands already

Single-molecule tracking of the transcription cycle by sub-second RNA detection

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Transcription is an inherently stochastic, noisy, and multi-step process, in which fluctuations at every step can cause variations in RNA synthesis, and affect physiology and differentiation decisions in otherwise identical cells. However, it has been an

Molecular structure and interactions of nucleic acid components in nanopaticles: ab initio calculations [PDF]

open access: yesUkrainian Journal of Physics, 2012, Vol. 57, no. 7, pp. 723-731, 2012
Self-associates of nucleic acid components (stacking trimers and tetramers of the base pairs of nucleic acids) and short fragments of nucleic acids are nanoparticles (linear sizes of these particles are more than 10 A. Modern quantum-mechanical methods and softwares allow one to perform ab initio calculations of the systems consisting of 150-200 atoms ...

Electropermeabilization-based fluorescence in situ hybridization of whole-mount plant parasitic nematode specimens

open access: yesMethodsX, 2019
A fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) protocol was developed for nematodes in which nucleic acid probes are introduced within the organism via electroporation.

Impedimetric Sensing of Factor V Leiden Mutation by Zip Nucleic Acid Probe and Electrochemical Array

open access: yesBiosensors, 2020
A carbon nanofiber enriched 8-channel screen-printed electrochemical array was used for the impedimetric detection of SNP related to Factor V Leiden (FV Leiden) mutation, which is the most common inherited form of thrombophilia.

Secondary structure formation of homopolymeric single-stranded nucleic acids including force and loop entropy: implications for DNA hybridization [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
Loops are essential secondary structure elements in folded DNA and RNA molecules and proliferate close to the melting transition. Using a theory for nucleic acid secondary structures that accounts for the logarithmic entropy c ln m for a loop of length m, we study homopolymeric single-stranded nucleic acid chains under external force and varying ...

Fabrication of uniform DNA-conjugated hydrogel microparticles via replica molding for facile nucleic acid hybridization assays.

open access: yesAnalytical Chemistry, 2010
We identify and investigate several critical parameters in the fabrication of single-stranded DNA conjugated poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) microparticles based on replica molding (RM) for highly uniform and robust nucleic acid hybridization assays.

Detection of Circovirus in Foxes with Meningoencephalitis, United Kingdom, 2009–2013

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
A fox circovirus was identified in serum samples from foxes with unexplained neurologic signs by using viral metagenomics. Fox circovirus nucleic acid was localized in histological lesions of the cerebrum by in situ hybridization. Viruses from the family
