Physical Interactions of Biopolymers with Nanoparticles

Аннотация

Using fluorescence resonance energy transfer, the physical interaction of nanoparticles with biopolymers is studied by the example of the interaction of quantum dots (energy donor) with two-chain oligonucleotides labeled with a fluorescent organic dye BDP TR (energy acceptor). The high-efficiency resonance energy transfer from quantum dots to an organic dye not only makes it possible to study the dependence of the transfer efficiency on the donor-acceptor molar ratio but also represents an efficient tool for studying the interactions of oligonucleotides of different structures with nanoscale objects.
