Achieving high hybridization density at DNA biosensor surfaces using branched spacer and click chemistry

Sandrine Gerber, Alireza Kavand, Mounir Driss Mensi, Lucas Mayoraz, Perrine Agnes Edith Robin

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the necessity to develop fast, highly sensitive and selective virus detection methods. Surface-based DNA-biosensors are interesting candidates for this purpose. Functionalization of solid substrates with DNA must be pr ...

Dynamic Chromatin Invasion and Remodeling by the Transcription Factor Rap1

Maxime Nicolas Mivelaz

Pioneer transcription factors (PTF) are a subset of transcription factors with nucleosome-binding properties allowing them to bind specific sequences in condensed chromatin. Although the biological functions of PTFs including target genes and epigenetic ch ...

High-throughput cryogenic spectroscopy for glycan analysis

Thomas Rizzo, Ahmed Ben Faleh, Stephan Warnke, Valeriu Scutelnic

A method for analyzing a plurality of molecules with cryogenic vibrational spectroscopy including the steps of providing a packet of molecules in a ionized form, injecting the packet into an ion mobility section, spatially separating the ions of the packet ...

Segregation of Nickel/Iron Bimetallic Particles from Lanthanum Doped Strontium Titanates to Improve Sulfur Stability of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Anodes

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Patrick Simon Steiger, Andre Heel

Perovskite derived Ni catalysts offer the remarkable benefit of regeneration after catalyst poisoning or Ni particle growth through the reversible segregation of Ni from the perovskite-type oxide host. Although this property allows for repeated catalyst re ...

Who Activates the Nucleophile in Ribozyme Catalysis? An Answer from the Splicing Mechanism of Group II Introns

Ursula Röthlisberger, Giulia Palermo, Lorenzo Casalino

Group II introns are Mg2+-dependent ribozymes that are considered to be the evolutionary ancestors of the eukaryotic spliceosome, thus representing an ideal model system to understand the mechanism of conversion of premature messenger RNA (mRNA) into matur ...

Label-Free Ultrasensitive Memristive Aptasensor

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Ioulia Tzouvadaki

We present the very first worldwide ever-reported electrochemical biosensor based on a memristive effect and DNA aptamers. This novel device is developed to propose a completely new approach in cancer diagnostics. In this study, an affinity-based technique ...

More DNA–Aptamers for Small Drugs: A Capture–SELEX Coupled with Surface Plasmon Resonance and High-Throughput Sequencing

Carlotta Guiducci, Fabio Mario Spiga

To address limitations in the production of DNA aptamers against small molecules, we introduce a DNA-based capture-SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment) protocol with long and continuous randomized library for more flexibility, ...

Impact of organic-ligand shell on catalytic performance of colloidal Pd nanoparticles for alkyne gas-phase hydrogenation

Lioubov Kiwi, Fernando Cardenas Lizana, Daniel André Samuel Lamey, Irina Prokopyeva

Monodispersed Pd nanoparticles (NPs) have been prepared by colloidal technique and deposited on a structured support consisting of carbon nanofibers (CNF) grown on sintered metal fibres (SMF). The surface properties of Pd NPs have been fine-tuned by (i) ch ...
