| Abstract | The dynamic natureof micellar nanostructures is employed to forma self-assembled Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) nanoplatformfor enhanced sensing of DNA. The platform consists of lipid oligonucleotideFRET probes incorporated into micellar scaffolds, where single recognitionevents result in fusion and fission of DNA mixed micelles, triggeringthe fluorescence response of multiple rather than a single FRET pair.In comparison to conventional FRET substrates where a single donorinteracts with a single acceptor, the micellar multiplex FRET systemshowed ∼20- and ∼3-fold enhancements in the limit ofdetection and FRET efficiency, respectively. This supramolecular signalamplification approach could potentially be used to improve FRET-baseddiagnostic assays of nucleic acid and non-DNA based targets. |
