摘要
A fluorescent biosensor for sequence-specific recognition of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) was developed based upon the DNA hybridization between dye-labeled single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and double-stranded DNA. The fluorescence of FAM-labeled single-stranded DNA was quenched when it adsorbed on the surface of graphene oxide (GO). Upon addition of the target dsDNA, a homopyrimidine.homopurine part of dsDNA on the Simian virus 40 (SV40) (4424-4440, gp6), hybridization occurred between the dye-labeled DNA and the target dsDNA, which induced the dyelabeled DNA desorbed from the surface of GO, and turned on the fluorescence of the dye. Under the optimum conditions, the enhanced fluorescence intensity was proportional to the concentration of target dsDNA in the range 40.0-260 nM, and the detection limit was found to be 14.3 nM alongside the good sequence selectivity.
