Enhancement of in vitro Translation by Gold Nanoparticle – DNA Conjugates

Gold nanoparticle (AuNP)−DNA conjugates can enhance in vitro translation of a protein. Enhancement occurs via a combination of nonspecific adsorption of translation-related molecules and the ribosome to the AuNP−DNA and specific binding to the mRNA of interest. AuNP−DNA conjugates enhanced protein p...
