Effect of Single Xeno Nucleic Acid Replacement on the Fluorescence of DNA-encapsulated Silver Nanoclusters
Abstract
The fluorescent properties of DNA/AgNCs are largely governed by the composition of AgNCs, nucleobase sequence, and the secondary structure of the DNA template. Here, by systematic incorporation of xeno-nucleic acid modifications, we demonstrate the potential of altering sugar chemistry of the template DNA backbone, as a novel factor in AgNC fluorescence modulation.
