Binding and cleavage of DNA with the restriction enzyme EcoR1 using time-resolved second harmonic generation

Abstract: The binding of EcoR1 to a 90-bp DNA duplex attached to colloidal microparticles and the subsequent cleavage by the enzyme was observed in real time and label-free with time-resolved second harmonic (SH) spectroscopy. This method provides a unique way to investigate biomolecular interactions based on its sensitivity to changes in structure and electrical charge on formation of a complex and subsequent dynamics. The binding of EcoR1 to the recognition sequence in DNA appears as a rapid increase in the SH signal,… Show more

“…The higher SHG signal in the miRNA-functionalized SNPs is mainly attributed to the negatively charged phosphate groups of the oligonucleotides, which increase the surface charge density magnitude and the corresponding surface potential, resulting in a larger χ (3) term. This interpretation is consistent with previous work and with our earlier results on miRNA-functionalized GNPs. ,,, The 6-TAMRA fluorophore has negligible contribution to the SHG signal because it has negligible absorption near the 800 nm probe and 400 nm SHG wavelengths. Figure b shows representative SHG spectra from the miRNA-functionalized SNPs at different UV-irradiation times of 0, 90, and 800 s using 365 nm irradiation with a 20 mW average power.…”

“…The experimental apparatus has been described previously (4,5). Briefly, a KM Labs Ti:sapphire oscillator running at 80 MHz, center wavelength of 840 nm, producing 300 mW of average power with a pulse width of ∼60 fs was focused into a 2-mm cuvette.…”

“…The amplitudes for the −OH bands are scaled by the estimated number density of particles on the surface as determined by XPS measurements (see SI). Here, we assume a linear relationship between the observed SFG intensity and the particle number density, as typically done in studies of NP samples using nonlinear spectroscopies. The scaled amplitude of the −OH bands, determined from the fit of the spectra, indicates higher concentration of the free OH binding sites on the surfaces of the NPs in PNCs with higher MW (Figure b). The observed systematic changes in the XPS and SFG spectra (Figures and ) suggest a significant decrease in the number of interaction sites between the polymer and NPs with increasing MW.…”
