We report a peptide-based sensor that involves a multivalent interaction with L-ascorbate 6-phosphate lactonase (UlaG), a protein marker of Streptococcus pneumonia. By integrating the antifouling feature of the sensor, we significantly improved the s...
The uncontrolled usage of veterinary antibiotics has led to their widespread pollution in waterways and milk products. Potential impact of antibiotic residues on the environment and human health such as increased antibiotic resistance of microorganis...

Aptamers are short single-stranded nucleic acids that bind to target molecules with high affinity and selectivity. Aptamers are generally identified in vitro by performing SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment). Complementi...
DNA nanorobots have emerged as new tools for nanomedicine with the potential to ameliorate the delivery and anticancer efficacy of various drugs. DNA nanostructures have been considered one of the most promising nanocarriers. In the present study, we...
Aptamer selection is a laborious procedure, requiring expertise and significant resources. These characteristics limit the accessibility of researchers to these molecular tools. We describe a selection procedure, making use of a robotic system that a...
Aptamer-protein interacting pairs play important roles in physiological functions and structural characterization. Identifying aptamer-protein interacting pairs is challenging and limited, despite of the tremendous applications of aptamers. Therefore...
Riboswitch development for clinical, technological, and synthetic biology applications constantly seeks to optimize regulatory behavior. Here, we present a machine learning approach to improve the regulation of a tetracycline (tc)-dependent riboswitc...

In this study, a high-performance biosensing nanoplatform based on amidoxime-modified polyacrylonitrile nanofibers decorated with Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs-PAN-oxime NFs) is described. The AgNPs-PAN-oxime NFs were prepared by the combination of electro...
The development of chemical sensors capable of detecting the specific glycosylation patterns of proteins offers a powerful mean for the early detection of cancer. Unfortunately, this strategy is scarcely explored because receptors recognizing the gly...
Cytochrome c (Cyt c) release and cellular pH change are two important mediators of apoptosis. Effective methods to regulate or monitor such two events are therefore highly desired for apoptosis research and cancer cell therapy. Herein, we exploited e...
