What is A novel fluorescent biosensor based on affinity-enhanced aptamer-peptide conjugate for sensitive detection of lead(II) in aquatic products about?
Lead contamination is a major concern in food safety and, as such, many lead detection methods have been developed, especially aptamer-based biosensors. However, the sensitivity and environmental tolerance of these sensors require improvement. A combination of different types of recognition elements is an effective way to improve the detection sensitivity and environmental tolerance of biosensors. Here, we provide a novel recognition element, an aptamer-peptide conjugate (APC), to achieve enhanced affinity of Pb 2+ . The APC was synthesized from Pb 2+ aptamers and peptides through clicking chemistry. The binding performance and environmental tolerance of APC with Pb 2+ was studied through isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC); the binding constant (K a ) was 1.76\*10 6 M −1 , indicating that the APC's affinity was increased by 62.96% and 802.56% compared with the aptamers and peptides, respectively. Besides, APC demonstrated better anti-interference (K + ) than aptamer and peptide. Through the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, we found that more binding sites and stronger binding energy between APC with Pb 2+ are the reasons for higher affinity between APC with Pb 2+ . Finally,
Who reads A novel fluorescent biosensor based on affinity-enhanced aptamer-peptide conjugate for sensitive detection of lead(II) in aquatic products?
It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Chemistry.
