An oligonucleotide modified with Ni-nitrilotriacetate (NTA) was successfully synthesized and used for the stoichiometric functionalization of QDs. This synthetic approach allowed for the facile preparation of DNAâQD conjugates with a defined DNA/QD ratio using well-known Niâhistidine coordination chemistry. A FRET based DNAâQD nanoprobe was prepared using this method highlighting the great potential of this synthetic strategy.
一种用镍-三乙酸(NTA)修饰的寡核苷酸被成功合成,并用于量子点的化学计量功能化。这种合成方法利用众所周知的镍-组氨酸配位化学,可以轻松制备具有特定DNA/QD比的DNA-QD共轭物。使用这种方法制备了一种基于荧光共振能量转移(FRET)的DNA-QD纳米探针,凸显了这种合成策略的巨大潜力。
