Enzyme-mediated assimilation of DNA-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes
When pyrimidine-functionalized carbon nanotubes were incubated with single-stranded DNA ligase, formations of macroscopic aggregates were observed. Wet-cell transmission electron microscopy imaging revealed that the nanotubes were radially bound to form a 3D latticelike structure. These structures w...

Zusammenfassung: | When pyrimidine-functionalized carbon nanotubes were incubated with single-stranded DNA ligase, formations of macroscopic aggregates were observed. Wet-cell transmission electron microscopy imaging revealed that the nanotubes were radially bound to form a 3D latticelike structure. These structures were not observed in control reactions lacking ligase or adenosine triphosphate. Raman spectroscopy analysis revealed no spectra indicative of carbon nanotubes in ligase-unamended controls; however, spectra were observed in radial breathing mode and in the G and G' bands in reactions containing ligase. Furthermore, the addition of deoxyribonuclease to the ligated reactions dispersed the aggregates, and a reduction in Raman spectral intensity was observed |
