The so-called acpcPNA system bears a peptide backbone consisting of 4′-substituted
proline units with (2′ R, 4′ R) configuration in an alternating combination with (2S)-amino …

Fluorescent nucleobases represent an important class of molecular reporters of nucleic acid
interactions. In this work, the advantages of utilizing a noncanonical fluorescent nucleobase …

The synthesis and optical characterisation of a series of green-and red-emitting cyanine and
cyanine-styryl dyes is presented that were developed based on the cyanine-indole …

A library of 52 distyryl and 9 mono-styryl cationic dyes was synthesized and investigated
with respect to their optical properties, propensity to aggregation in aqueous medium, and …

The magnetic–fluorescent nanoparticles are the integration of fluorophores and magnetic
nanoparticles (MNP), which are superior to traditional single-modal nanoparticles. Here, we …

Unsymmetrical cyanine dyes, such as thiazole orange, are useful for the detection of nucleic
acids with fluorescence because they dramatically enhance the fluorescence upon binding …

Selective and sensitive detection of G-quadruplex DNA structures is an important issue and
