title: A gold nanocarrier and DNA-metal ligation-based sensing ensemble for fluorescent assay of thiol-containing amino acids and peptides.
abstract: By engineering a gold nanoparticle and thymine-Hg(2+)-thymine-based hairpin DNA probe, a gold nanocarrier-based strategy for in vitro detection and live-cell imaging of thiol-containing amino acids/peptides was proposed.
