Abstract
T4 polynucleotide kinase helps with DNA recombination and repair. In this study, an electrochemical biosensor was developed for a T4 polynucleotide kinase activity assay and inhibitor screening based on phosphate pillar[5]arene and multi-walled carbon nanotube nanocomposites. The water-soluble pillar[5]arene was employed as the host to complex thionine guest molecules. The substrate DNA with a 5'-hydroxyl group initially self-assembled on the gold electrode surface through chemical adsorption of the thiol group, which was phosphorylated in the presence of T4 polynucleotide kinase. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles served as a bridge to link phosphorylated DNA and phosphate pillar[5]arene and multi-walled carbon nanotube composite due to strong phosphate-Ti4+-phosphate chemistry. Through supramolecular host-guest recognition, thionine molecules were able to penetrate the pillar[5]arene cavity, resulting in an enhanced electrochemical response signal. The electrochemical signal is proportional to the T4 polynucleotide kinase concentration in the range of 10-5 to 15 U mL-1 with a detection limit of 5 × 10-6 U mL-1. It was also effective in measuring HeLa cell lysate-related T4 polynucleotide kinase activity and inhibitor screening. The proposed method offers a unique sensing platform for kinase activity measurement, holding great potential in nucleotide kinase-target drug development, clinical diagnostics, and inhibitor screening.

Abstract
T4 polynucleotide kinase (T4 PNK) is an important DNA repair-related enzyme that plays a crucial role in DNA recombination, replication and damage repair. Herein, an electrochemical biosensor was developed for detection of T4 PNK activity and inhibitor screening based on supramolecular host-guest recognition between phosphate pillar (Dumitrache and McKinnon, 2017) [5] arene (PP5) and methylene blue (MB). The water-soluble PP5 employed as the host for complexation of MB guest molecules. The substrate DNA with 5'-hydroxyl group was first self-assembled on the gold electrode surface through the chemical adsorption of the thiol group, which was phosphorylated in the presence of T4 PNK and adenosine triphosphate (ATP). TiO2 served as a bridge to link phosphorylated DNA and PP5 via the robust phosphate-Ti4+-phosphate chemistry. The immobilized PP5 captured the MB on electrode surface via the supramolecular host-guest recognition interaction, resulting in an enhanced electrochemical response signal. The electrochemical signal is proportional to the T4 PNK concentration in the range of 2 × 10-4 to 5 U mL-1 with a detection limit of 1 × 10-4 U mL-1. It was also successfully used for PNK inhibitor screening and PNK activity assay in HeLa cell lysates sample. The proposed strategy provides a novel sensing platform for kinase activity assay and inhibitor screening, holding a great potential in clinical diagnostics, inhibitor screening, and nucleotide kinase-target drug discovery.

Abstract
Kinases are responsible for regulating cellular and physiological processes, and abnormal kinase activity is associated with various diseases. Therefore, kinases are being used as biomarkers for disease and developing methods for their sensing is highly important. Usually more than one kinase is involved in phosphorylating a target protein. However, kinase detection methods usually detect the activity of only one specific kinase. Here we describe an electrochemical kinase sensing tool for the selective detection of two kinases using the same target peptide. We demonstrate the sensing of kinases ERK2 and PKCδ. This is based on a single sensing element, a peptide that contains two distinct phosphorylation sites of these two kinases. Reversibility experiments with alkaline phosphatase and reaction with the electrochemically active ferrocene-labeled ATP showed that the mechanism of sensing is by detecting the enzymatic phosphorylation. Our approach can be further utilized to develop devices for the detection of multiple kinases and can be expanded to other types of enzymes involved in disease.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive electrochemical detection of the activity and inhibition of T4 polynucleotide kinase (T4 PNK) was developed by using magnetic Fe3O4@TiO2 core-shell nanoparticles, which was triggered by a rolling circle amplification strategy (Fe3O4@TiO2-RCA). We used Fe3O4@TiO2 as a substrate to anchor a DNA primer. DNA S1 with 5'-OH termini was phosphorylated in the presence of T4 PNK and ATP, which was adsorbed on the surface of Fe3O4@TiO2 NPs and served as the primer for subsequent RCA reactions. After adding circular template DNA S2, RCA was initiated in the presence of phi29 DNA polymerase and dNTPs. Then, Fc-labeled DNA S3 (Fc-S3) was hybridized with RCA. The obtained Fe3O4@TiO2-RCA was adsorbed on the surface of a magnetic gold electrode (MGE) by magnetic enrichment, resulting in an enhanced electrochemical signal. The T4 PNK activity can be monitored by measuring the electrochemical signal generated. This electrochemical assay is sensitive to the activity of T4 PNK with a dynamic linear range of 0.00001-20 U/mL and a low detection limit of 3.0 × 10-6 U/mL. The proposed strategy can be used to screen the T4 PNK inhibitors, so it has great potential in the discovery of nucleotide kinase-target drug and early clinical diagnosis of cancer.

Abstract
DNA nanomaterials have attracted ever-increasing attention over the past decades due to their incomparable programmability and multifunctionality. In particular, DNA dendrimer nanostructures, as a major research focus, have been applied in the fields of biosensing, therapeutics, and protein engineering, benefiting from their highly branched configuration. With the aid of specific recognition probes and inherent signal amplification, DNA dendrimers can achieve ultrasensitive detection of nucleic acids, proteins, cells, and other substances, such as lipopolysaccharides (LPS), adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and exosomes. By virtue of their void-containing structures and biocompatibility, DNA dendrimers can deliver drugs or functional nucleic acids into target cells in chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and gene therapy. Furthermore, DNA dendrimers are being applied in protein engineering for efficient directed evolution of proteins. This review summarizes the main research progress of DNA dendrimers, concerning their assembly methods and biomedical applications as well as the emerging challenges and perspectives for future research.

Abstract
DNA encodes the genetic information; recently, it has also become a key player in material science. Given the specific Watson-Crick base-pairing interactions between only four types of nucleotides, well-designed DNA self-assembly can be programmable and predictable. Stem-loops, sticky ends, Holliday junctions, DNA tiles, and lattices are typical motifs for forming DNA-based structures. The oligonucleotides experience thermal annealing in a near-neutral buffer containing a divalent cation (usually Mg2+ ) to produce a variety of DNA nanostructures. These structures not only show beautiful landscape, but can also be endowed with multifaceted functionalities. This Review begins with the fundamental characterization and evolutionary trajectory of DNA-based artificial structures, but concentrates on their biomedical applications. The coverage spans from controlled drug delivery to high therapeutic profile and accurate diagnosis. A variety of DNA-based materials, including aptamers, hydrogels, origamis, and tetrahedrons, are widely utilized in different biomedical fields. In addition, to achieve better performance and functionality, material hybridization is widely witnessed, and DNA nanostructure modification is also discussed. Although there are impressive advances and high expectations, the development of DNA-based structures/technologies is still hindered by several commonly recognized challenges, such as nuclease instability, lack of pharmacokinetics data, and relatively high synthesis cost.

Abstract
An ultrasensitive electrochemical biosensor was developed for detection of T4 polynucleotide kinase (T4 PNK) activity based on titanium dioxide nanotubes (TiO2 NTs) and a rolling circle amplification (RCA) strategy. In this study, the immobilized T4 PNK substrate probe with a 5′ terminus hydroxyl was phosphorylated by T4 PNK in the presence of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and the resulting 5-phosphoryl can be linked with the TiO2 NTs and further conjugated with the phosphate-labeled primer. RCA was initiated by adding circular template, phi29 DNA polymerase and deoxyribonucleoside 5-triphosphate mixture (dNTPs). Biotin-labeled probes are chosen as a signal indicator by strong biotin–streptavidin interaction and the high loading of horseradish peroxidase–streptavidin (HRP–SA) for electrochemical signal generation and amplification. A dual-signaling amplification strategy has been established, which exhibited an excellent performance with a wide linear range from 0.0001–15 U mL−1 and a low detection limit of 0.00003 U mL−1 for T4 PNK detection. The inhibition effect of (NH4)2SO4 on the activity of T4 PNK is also evaluated. This new dual-signaling electrochemical biosensor can be used for the detection of the activity and inhibition of other nucleic acid enzymes. An ultrasensitive electrochemical biosensor was developed for detection of T4 polynucleotide kinase activity based on titanium dioxide nanotubes and a rolling circle amplification strategy.![]()

Abstract
Inorganic nanoparticles usually provide novel and unique physical properties as their size approaches nanometer scale dimensions. The unique physical and optical properties of nanoparticles may lead to applications in a variety of areas, including biomedical detection. Therefore, current research is now increasingly focused on the use of the high surface-to-volume ratios of nanoparticles to fabricate superb chemical- or biosensors for various detection applications. This article highlights various kinds of inorganic nanoparticles, including metal nanoparticles, magnetic nanoparticles, nanocomposites, and semiconductor nanoparticles that can be perceived as useful materials for biomedical probes and points to the outstanding results arising from their use in such probes. The progress in the use of inorganic nanoparticle-based electrochemical, colorimetric and spectrophotometric detection in recent applications, especially bioanalysis, and the main functions of inorganic nanoparticles in detection are reviewed. The article begins with a conceptual discussion of nanoparticles according to types, followed by numerous applications to analytes including biomolecules, disease markers, and pharmaceutical substances. Most of the references cited herein, dating from 2010 to 2015, generally mention one or more of the following characteristics: a low detection limit, good signal amplification and simultaneous detection capabilities.

Abstract
We present an integrated approach for highly sensitive identification and validation of substrate-specific kinases as cancer biomarkers. Our approach combines phosphoproteomics for high throughput cancer-related biomarker discovery from patient tissues and an impedimetric kinase activity biosensor for sensitive validation. Using non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as a proof-of-concept study, label-free quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis of a pair of cancerous and its adjacent normal tissues revealed 198 phosphoproteins that are over-phosphorylated in NSCLC. Among the differentially regulated phosphorylation sites, the most significant alteration was in residue S165 in the Hepatoma Derived Growth Factor (HDGF) protein. Hence, HDGF was selected as a model system for the electrochemical studies. Further motif-based analysis of this altered phosphorylation site revealed that extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) are most likely to be the corresponding kinases. For validation of the kinase-substrate pair, densely packed peptide monolayers corresponding to the HDGF phosphorylation site were coupled to a gold electrode. Phosphorylation of the monolayer by ERK2 and dephosphorylation by alkaline phosphatase (AP) were detected by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and surface roughness analysis. Compared to other methods for quantification of kinase concentration, this label-free electrochemical assay offers the advantages of ultra-sensitivity as well as higher specificity for the detection of cancer-related kinase-substrate pair. With implementation of multiple kinase-substrate biomarker pairs, we expect this integrated approach to become a high throughput platform for discovery and validation of phosphorylation-mediated biomarkers.
