Sensitive fluorescence biosensor for folate receptor based on terminal protection of small-molecule-linked DNA

Abstract

Based on the specific folic acid–folate receptor (FA–FR) interaction, macromolecular FR can bind with FA-linked DNA–small molecule chimeras, which can prevent enzymolysis by exonuclease III (Exo III), enabling a novel fluorescence biosensor for FR to be developed using quinaldine red as a G-quadruplex-binding probe.
