Silver(i) ions and cysteine detection based on photoinduced electron transfer mediated by cytosine–Ag+–cytosine base pairs

Abstract

Upon formation of cytosine–Ag+cytosine base pairs as a mediator for the photoinduced electron transfer, the fluorescence of FAM-labeled DNA was quenched and the fluorescence emission wavelength exhibited a red shift. Based on these phenomena a novel dual-output fluorescent DNA sensor for Ag+ ions and cysteine detection was developed.
