The group trend of lanthanides binding to DNA and DNAzymes with a complex but symmetric pattern
Lin, Wei Ting David; Huang, Po-Jung Jimmy; Pautler, Rachel; Liu, Juewen (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014-07-18)Using sensitized Tb3+ luminescence spectroscopy as a tool, binding of 14 lanthanides to a lanthanide-dependent DNAzyme is studied, where the binding affinity is symmetric across the series and the tightest binding occurs ... -
Nucleotide coordination with 14 lanthanides studied by isothermal titration calorimetry
Zhang, Zijie; Morishita, Kiyoshi; Lin, Wei Ting David; Huang, Po-Jung Jimmy; Liu, Juewen (Elsevier, 2017-06-09)With their hydrolytic, optical and magnetic properties, lanthanide ions (Ln3+) are versatile probes for nucleic acids. In addition, nucleotide-coordinated Ln3+ ions form useful nanoparticles. However, the thermodynamic ...
