Glad to see our new J. Am. Chem. Soc. paper online on New Year Day! Using Sc3+, a visiting PhD student Jin Wang obtained an aptamer with different affinities and binding and dissociation kinetics to rare earth metals. Thanks Philip Johnson and Rahith for NMR! doi.org/10.1021/jacs.4…




Glad to see the structure of our theophylline DNA aptamer solved by crystallography by Prof. Lin Huang 黄林. A beautiful structure 👍👍 From Theophylline to Adenine or preQ1: Repurposing a DNA Aptamer Revealed by Crystal Structure Analysis onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…



Our aptamer for acrylamide has only mM affinity. After reacting acrylamide with xanthydrol to form a covalent adduct, a new aptamer with nM affinity for the adduct was obtained. Published ACS Analytical Chemistry Journals pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…









I think this is the first time that Irving-Williams series is seen in a nucleic acid. Should be an interesting metal binding site. Check out our new paper Chemical Science, another good collaboration with Philip Johnson and Rahith pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…
