"Monitoring the Movement of Molecules in the Body via Real-time Aptamer-based Sensors" Abstract:   Electrochemical, aptamer-based sensors (E-ABs) enable specific, continuous, and real-time molecular measurements in vivo. Their selectivity and modularity stem from the use of nucleic acid aptamers—single-stranded DNA oligos selected in vitro for their ability to bind specific molecular targets. To create E-ABs, redox-reporter-modified aptamers are attached to gold electrodes via thiol-based self-assembly. These modified aptamers are engineered to exhibit two thermodynamic states: an unbound, slow electron-transferring state in the absence of the target, and a bound, fast electron-transferring state in the presence of the target. The two...
