Self-assembling icosahedral protein cages have potencially useful physical and chemical characteristics for a variety of nanotechnology applications, ranging from therapeutic or diagnostic vectors to building blocks for hierarchical materials. For application-specific functional control of protein cage assemblies, a deeper understanding of the interaction between the protein cage and its payload is necessary. Protein-cage encapsulated nanoparticles, with their well-defined surface chemistry, allow for systematic control over key parameters of encapsulation such as the surface charge, hydrophobicity, and size. Independent control over these variables allows experimental testing of different assembly mechanism models. Previous studies done with Brome mosaic virus capsids and negatively …

Herein, we demonstrate that the surface charge of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) plays a critical role in modulating membrane potential of different malignant and nonmalignant cell types and subsequent downstream intracellular events. The findings presented here describe a novel mechanism for cell-nanoparticle interactions and AuNP uptake: modulation of membrane potential and its effect on intracellular events. These studies will help understand the biology of cell-nanoparticle interactions and facilitate the engineering of nanoparticles for specific intracellular targets.

We have developed an enzyme−nanoparticle sensor array where the sensitivity is amplified through enzymatic catalysis. In this approach cationic gold nanoparticles are electrostatically bound to an enzyme (β-galactosidase, β-Gal), inhibiting enzyme activity. Analyte proteins release the β-Gal, restoring activity and providing an amplified readout of the binding event. Using this strategy we have been able to identify proteins in buffer at a concentration of 1 nM, substantially lower than current strategies for array-based protein sensing. Moreover, we have obtained identical sensitivity in studies where the proteins are spiked into the complex protein matrix provided by desalted human urine (1.5 μM …

Diaminopyridine dendritic scaffolds encapsulate polymeric flavin via non-covalent interactions and demonstrate isolation of the redox moiety.

Chemically Directed Immobilization Of Nanoparticles Onto Gold Substrates For Orthogonal Assembly Using Dithiocarbamate Bond Formation, Mh Park, Xx Duan, Y Ofir, B Creran, D Patra, Xy Ling, J Huskens, Vm Rotello

Dithiocarbamate-mediated bond formation combined with soft lithography was used for the selective immobilization of amine-functionalized silica nanoparticles on gold substrates. The available amine groups on the upper surface of the immobilized silica nanoparticles were further utilized for postdeposition of additional materials including particles, dyes, and biomolecules. The robustness of dithiocarbamate-mediated immobilization enables orthogonal assembly on surfaces via selective removal of the masking thiol ligands using iodine vapor etching followed by further functionalization.

Out on a limb: Sonogashira coupling of a suitable AB(2) monomer containing two iodine and one alkyne group forms a hyperbranched conjugated polymer that is studded with iodine end groups (see picture: I purple). These iodine groups are a perfect handle for convenient, efficient, and high-yielding post-functionalization to access hyperbranched, fluorescent poly(phenyleneethynylene)s.

Gold nanoparticles were coated with a short peptide to promote intracellular delivery of membrane-impermeable proteins. Through microscopy and enzyme assays, we demonstrated the particles were able to transport functional enzymes into a variety of cell lines. Significantly, the transported proteins were able to escape from endosomes. Moreover, these particles showed no apparent cytotoxicity.

Electronic absorption, magnetic circular dichroism (MCD), photoconductivity, and valence-band x-ray photoelectron (XPS) spectroscopic measurements were performed on epitaxial Zn1−xMnxO films to investigate the origin of the mid-gap band that appears upon introduction of Mn2+ into the ZnO lattice. Absorption and MCD spectroscopies reveal Mn2+-related intensity at energies below the first excitonic transition of ZnO, tailing well into the visible energy region, with an onset at ∼2.2 eV. Photoconductivity measurements show that excitation into this visible band generates mobile charge carriers, consistent with assignment as a Mn2+/3+ photoionization transition. XPS measurements reveal the presence of occupied Mn2+ levels just above the …

A family of conjugated fluorescent polymers was used to create an array for cell sensing. Fluorescent conjugated polymers with pendant charged residues provided multivalent interactions with cell membranes, allowing the detection of subtle differences between different cell types on the basis of cell surface features. Highly reproducible characteristic patterns were obtained from different cell types as well as from isogenic cell lines, enabling the identification of the cell type as well differentiating between normal, cancerous, and metastatic isogenic cell types with high accuracy.
