CdSe−ZnS Quantum Dots as Resonance Energy Transfer Donors in a Model Protein−Protein Binding Assay

Willard, Dale M., Carillo, Lori L., Jung, Jaemyeong, Van Orden, Alan·2001·Nano Letters

Abstract

Specific binding of biotinilated bovine serum albumin (bBSA) and tetramethylrhodamine-labeled streptavidin (SAv−TMR) was observed by conjugating bBSA to CdSe−ZnS core−shell quantum dots (QDs) and observing enhanced TMR fluorescence caused by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from the QD donors to the TMR acceptors. Because of the broad absorption spectrum of the QDs, efficient donor excitation could occur at a wavelength that was well resolved from the absorption spectrum of the acceptor, thereby minimizing direct acceptor excitation. Appreciable overlap of the donor emission and acceptor absorption spectra was achieved by size-tuning the QD emission spectrum into resonance with the acceptor absorption spectrum, and cross-talk between the donor and acceptor emission was minimized because of the narrow, symmetrically shaped QD emission spectrum. Evidence for an additional, nonspecific QD−TMR energy transfer mechanism that caused quenching of the QD emission without a corresponding TMR fluorescence enhancement was also observed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
