Synthesis and Application of FRET Nanoparticles in the Profiling of a Protease

Abstract: Fluorescent silica nanoparticles incorporating unique ratios of energy‐transfer dyes are synthesized and applied as colloidal barcodes to encode a microsphere‐bound combinatorial peptide library. The affinity of the West Nile virus protease is profiled using this library with cleavage of the peptide detected by flow cytometry. The cleaved peptide substrates are sorted and then identified through decoding by confocal microscopy combined with spectral unmixing (see image).

“…Recently, a fluorescent silica-based “colloidal barcoding” method as one of the optical encoding has been reported by Trau and co-workers. This barcoding method is the first report for tracking of synthetic path during split-and-mix synthesis by using fluorescent silica nanoparticles (NPs) which contain specific, and identifiable combinations of fluorescent dyes 34 35 36 37 . However, a large number of fluorescence-based codes are impractical due to complex nature of the process, which includes issues with spectral overlapping and with fluorescence resonance energy transfer 13 38 .…”
