In this work, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor chip for sensitive detection of thrombin (TB) was prepared using a screen-printed electrode (SPE) as a working electrode and an aptamer as a specific recognition moiety. To produce an ECL sensor chip, a layer of pL-Cys was immobilized on the surface of the SPE using the cyclic voltammetry scanning method. A layer of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was assembled through an Au-S bond and hairpin DNA was further immobilized on the electrode surface. Ru(bpy) 2 (mcpbpy) 2+ , as a luminescent reagent, was covalently bound to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) to prepare a luminescence probe ssDNA-Ru. The

Life molecules' distributions in live systems construct the complex dynamic reaction networks, whereas it is still challenging to demonstrate the dynamic distributions of biomolecules in live systems. Herein, we proposed a dynamic analysis strategy via sequence-structure bispecific RNA with state-adjustable molecules to monitor the dynamic concentration and spatiotemporal localization of these biomolecules in live cells based on the new insight of fluorescent RNA (FLRNA) interactions and their mechanism of fluorescence enhancement. Typically, computer-based nucleic acidmolecular docking simulation and molecular theoretical calculation have been proposed to provide a simple and straightforward method for guiding the custom-design of FLRNA. Impressively, a novel FLRNA with sequence and structure bispecific RNA named as a structure-switching aptamer (SSA) was introduced to monitor the real-time concentration and spatiotemporal localization of biomolecules, contributing to a deeper insight of the dynamic monitoring and visualization of biomolecules in live systems.
