Abstract
An optical microfiber interferometric biosensor for the low concentration detection of sequence-specific deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) based on signal amplification technology via oligonucleotides linked to gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) is proposed and experimentally analyzed. The sensor uses a "sandwich" detection strategy, in which capture probe DNA (DNA-c) is immobilized on the surface of the optical microfiber interferometer, the reporter probe DNA (DNA-r) is immobilized on the surface of Au-NPs, and the DNA-c and DNA-r are hybridized to the target probe DNA (DNA-t) in a sandwich arrangement. The dynamic detection of the DNA-t was found to range from 1.0×10-15 M to 1.0×10-8 M, and the limit of detection (LOD) concentration was 1.32 fM. This sensor exhibited not only a low LOD but also excellent selectivity against mismatched DNA-t, and it can be further developed for application in various sensing platforms.

Abstract
Oxidoreductases and metalloproteins, representing more than one third of all known proteins, serve as significant catalysts for numerous biological processes that involve electron transfers such as photosynthesis, respiration, metabolism, and molecular signaling. The functional properties of the oxidoreductases/metalloproteins are determined by the nature of their redox centers. Protein engineering is a powerful approach that is used to incorporate biological and abiological redox cofactors as well as novel enzymes and redox proteins with predictable structures and desirable functions for important biological and chemical applications. The methods of protein engineering, mainly rational design, directed evolution, protein surface modifications, and domain shuffling, have allowed the creation and study of a number of redox proteins. This review presents a selection of engineered redox proteins achieved through these methods, resulting in a manipulation in redox potentials, an increase in electron-transfer efficiency, and an expansion of native proteins by de novo design. Such engineered/modified redox proteins with desired properties have led to a broad spectrum of practical applications, ranging from biosensors, biofuel cells, to pharmaceuticals and hybrid catalysis. Glucose biosensors are one of the most successful products in enzyme electrochemistry, with reconstituted glucose oxidase achieving effective electrical communication with the sensor electrode; direct electron-transfer-type biofuel cells are developed to avoid thermodynamic loss and mediator leakage; and fusion proteins of P450s and redox partners make the biocatalytic generation of drug metabolites possible. In summary, this review includes the properties and applications of the engineered redox proteins as well as their significance and great potential in the exploration of bioelectrochemical sensing devices.

Abstract
We synthesized fluorescent ferritin nanoparticles (FFNPs) through bacterial expression of the hybrid gene consisting of human ferritin heavy chain (hFTN-H), spacer (glycine-rich peptide), and enhanced green (or red) fluorescent protein [eGFP (or DsRed)] genes. The self-assembly activity of hFTN-H that leads to the formation of nanoparticles (12 nm in diameter), the conformational flexibility of the C-terminus of hFTN-H, and the glycine-rich spacer enabled eGFPs (or DsReds) to be well displayed on the surface of each ferritin nanoparticle, resulting in the construction of green (or red) FFNPs [gFFNPs (or rFFNPs)]. As compared to eGFP (or DsRed) alone, it is notable that the developed FFNPs showed significantly amplified fluorescence intensity and also enhanced stability. DNA aptamers were chemically conjugated to gFFNP via each eGFP's cysteine residue that was newly introduced through site-directed mutagenesis (Ser175Cys). The DNA-aptamer-conjugated gFFNPs were used as a fluorescent reporter probe in the aptamer-based "sandwich" assay of a cancer marker [i.e., platelet-derived growth factor B-chain homodimer (PDGF-BB)] in phosphate-buffered saline buffer or diluted human serum. This is a simple two-step assay without any additional steps for signal amplification, showing that compared to the same aptamer-based assays using eGFP alone or Cy3, the detection signals, affinity of the reporter probe to the cancer marker, and assay sensitivity were significantly enhanced; i.e., the limit of detection was lowered to the 100 fM level. Although the PDGF-BB assay is reported here as a proof-of-concept, the developed FFNPs can be applied in general to any aptamer-based sandwich assays.

Abstract
We report the realization of a polarimetric surface plasmon resonance imaging system capable of dynamically resolving a change in the optical anisotropy of biochemical films. Anisotropies as small as 10(-3) refractive index unit on nanometer-thick samples can be resolved. As an example, we present here the dynamical anisotropy obtained by the electrical patterning of a film consisting of a self-assembled monolayer deposited on gold, covered with a phospholipid hemimembrane.

Abstract
We constructed an original supramolecular assembly on a surface of sensor composed of an innovative combination of an engineered cytochrome b5 and a modified nucleic acid bound to a synthetic lipid hemimembrane. The protein/DNA block, called (PDNA) 2, was synthesized and purified before its immobilization onto a hybrid bilayer reconstituted on a gold surface. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were engaged in parallel on the same substrates in order to better understand dynamic events that occur at the surface of the biosensor. Good correlations were obtained in terms of specificity and reversibility. These findings allow us to present a first application of such biosensor in the study of the interaction processes between nuclear receptor and DNA.

Abstract
We present the results of a study in which biomolecular interaction analysis (BIA, Biacoretrade mark 2000) was combined with mass spectrometry (MS) using entire "on-a-chip" procedure. Most BIA-MS studies included an elution step of the analyte prior MS analysis. Here, we report a low-cost approach combining Biacore analysis with homemade chips and MS in situ identification onto the chips without elution step. First experiments have been made with rat serum albumin to determine the sensitivity and validation of the concept has been obtained with an antibody/antigen couple. Our "on-a-chip" procedure allowed complete analysis by MS/MS(2) of the biochip leading to protein identifications at low femtomole to sub-femtomole levels. Using this technique, identification of protein complexes were routinely obtained giving the opportunity to the "on-a-chip" processing to complete the BIA-MS approach in the discovery and analysis of protein complexes.

Abstract
Different semi-synthetic PDNAs (protein–DNA complexes), which encompass a protein core engineered from the cytochrome b5 scaffold, an embedded tuneable redox cofactor, a synthetic linker and a large oligonucleotide, were designed, synthesized and purified to homogeneity. These building blocks can be reversibly attached to Ni-DOGS {1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-[N(5-amino-1-carboxypentyl)iminodiacetic acid]succinyl}-doped supported membranes through a metal chelate bridge with the protein part and be polymerized in a fully controllable manner using a solid-phase synthesis strategy and a stepwise addition of suitable complementary oligonucleotides. The resulting structures could recreate a large range of regular distribution of patterned redox and absorbing centres separated by fully tuneable distances and geometry. Kinetic parameters for the self-assembly of building blocks were determined using SPRI (surface plasmon resonance imagery). Structures of resulting nano-objects were characterized using gel electrophoresis and single molecule approaches following decoration of assemblies with quantum dots.

Abstract
We previously showed that one-electron transfer from tetrahydropterins to iron porphyrins is a very general reaction, with formation of an intermediate cation radical similar to the one detected in NO synthase. As a model reaction, the rates of reduction of eight haemoproteins by diMePH4 (6,7-dimethyltetrahydropterin) have been studied and correlated with their one-electron reduction potentials, E(m) (Fe(III)/Fe(II)). On the basis of kinetic data analyses, a bimolecular collisional mechanism is proposed for the electron transfer from diMePH4 to ferrihaemoproteins. Haemoproteins with reduction potentials below -160 mV were shown not to be reduced by diMePH4 to the corresponding ferrohaemoproteins. For haemoproteins with reduction potentials more positive than -160 mV, such as chloroperoxidase, cytochrome b5, methaemoglobin and cytochrome c, there was a good correlation between the second-order reduction rate constant and the redox potential, E(m) (Fe(III)/Fe(II)): [formula: see text]. The rate of reduction of cytochrome c by BH4 [(6R)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin] was determined to be similar to that of the reduction of cytochrome c by diMePH4. These results confirm the role of tetrahydropterins as one-electron donors to Fe(III) porphyrins.

Abstract
Highly controlled supramolecular assemblies combining a genetically engineered redox protein, cytochrome b5, and modified oligonucleotides are presented. Modified b5 and DNA are covalently assembled through a hetero bifunctional cross-linker to give a unique hybrid molecular species. Moreover, the assembly includes a histidine tag head able to bind to modified phospholipids which lead to a new generation of self-assembled dynamic DNA chips. The interaction of the construction with a complementary oligonucleotide sequence can be monitored in real time by surface plasmon resonance using Biacore technology. The biochip, presented herein, features unique properties including tunable surface density of probes, very low non-specific interactions and optimization of hybridization efficiency. In addition, we demonstrated that the phase transition of the lipidic layer can modulate the dynamic of the association of the complex to the supported membrane. Potential applications of this new device are multiple including high sensitivity and high selectivity biochips, especially for studies of the DNA-ligands interactions in a biomimetic environment.

Abstract
We have compiled 819 articles published in the year 2002 that involved commercial optical biosensor technology. The literature demonstrates that the technology's application continues to increase as biosensors are contributing to diverse scientific fields and are used to examine interactions ranging in size from small molecules to whole cells. Also, the variety of available commercial biosensor platforms is increasing and the expertise of users is improving. In this review, we use the literature to focus on the basic types of biosensor experiments, including kinetics, equilibrium analysis, solution competition, active concentration determination and screening. In addition, using examples of particularly well-performed analyses, we illustrate the high information content available in the primary response data and emphasize the impact of including figures in publications to support the results of biosensor analyses.
