Biomimetic sensing based on chemically induced assembly of a signaling DNA aptamer on a fluid bilayer membrane
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2012-04-18)The adenosine aptamer was split into two halves and linked to a fluid liposome surface; addition of adenosine resulted in aptamer assembly, which did not occur if the split aptamer was attached to silica nanoparticles, ... -
Driving Adsorbed Gold Nanoparticle Assembly by Merging Lipid Gel/Fluid Interfaces
(American Chemical Society, 2015-11-23)Surface forces between inorganic nanoparticles and lipid bilayer is of great relevance to biophysics, medicine, and nanobiotechnology. Adsorbed nanoparticles may influence the fluidity of the underlying lipids, which may ...
