Matrix‐Activated Aptamer Sensors for Human Serum Analysis
The sample self‐analyzes: The predominant serum proteins, albumin and immunoglobulin G, were leveraged to activate the response of fluorescent aptamer probes within the biological matrix. The fluorescence‐anisotropy‐based sensing platform demonstrated both performance and consistency for the direct detection of small molecules in serum‐rich samples ...

Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has a markedly distinctive clinical and neuroradiological signature, with the preferential involvement of specific brain networks and the apparent sparing of others. The molecular underpinnings of the strikingly selective anatomical vulnerability have not been fully elucidated to date despite the potential ...

Isothiazologuanosine (tzG) as Environmentally Sensitive Fluorescent Reporter in RNA
The emissive isothiazologuanosine analog tzG is synthesized for the first time as RNA phosphoramidite building block for solid‐phase synthesis. Due to its isomorphic and isofunctional characteristics, tzG forms Watson–Crick base pairs and can be used as fluorescent probe to monitor (deoxy)ribozyme activity.

Rhenium‐Based β‐Galactosidase Probe Allows Senescence Profiling by Mass Cytometry
Senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase (SA‐β‐Gal) activity is a widely accepted biomarker of cellular senescence, yet its integration with other senescence markers has been limited by available detection methods. Here, we introduce ReGal, a mass cytometry‐compatible SA‐β‐Gal activity probe that can be multiplexed with established markers of senescence ...

A Conserved Isoleucine Gates the Diffusion of CO and O2 to the Active Site of NiFe CO‐Dehydrogenase
A combination of protein film electrochemistry and site‐directed mutagenesis shows that isoleucine 563 (numbering of Thermococcus sp. AM4) gates the arrival of both CO and O2 to the active site of the nickel‐iron CO dehydrogenases. Mutations at this position increase the resistance to O2 at the cost of a slower reaction with CO.
