Fluorescent Ribozyme and Deoxyribozyme Sensors
Abstract
The development of allosteric nucleic acid enzymes (NAEs) has made NAEs very attractive for a wide variety of biotechnological applications, including biosensing, diagnostics, drug screening, and molecular computation. Although NAEs alone might have limited values for analytical application due to the rather small scope of their substrates and cofactors, modular characteristics of aptamers and NAEs permit the easy design of combined sensors …
