Abstract

A versatile molecular device (lanthanide-complex molecular beacon; LCMB) was prepared by tethering ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid to the 5′-end and 1,10-phenanthroline to the 3′-end of stem–loop structured DNA as metal-capturing and sensitizer moieties, respectively. The emission from LCMB responded to the target molecule through the reversible structural change.
