A new AgNC fluorescence regulation mechanism caused by coiled DNA and its applications in constructing molecular beacons with low background and large signal enhancement

Abstract

Herein, we report a new fluorescence regulation mechanism of DNA-templated AgNCs caused by coiled DNA. Based on these phenomena, a novel dual fluorescent AgNC-MB with exponential signal enhancement and remarkably low background was developed. The AgNC-MB could effectively facilitate template design and avoid the disturbance caused by undesirable hybridization.
