Copper-catalyzed cycloaddition of steroidal azides and ferrocenyl-alkynes were found to be an efficient methodology for the synthesis of ferrocene-labeled steroids. At the same time, a great difference between the reactivity of 2β- or 16β-azido-androstanes and a sterically hindered 6β-azido steroid toward both ferrocenyl-alkynes and simple alkynes, such as phenylacetylene, 1-octyne, propargyl acetate and methyl propiolate, was observed.

Nanoelectrodes, renowned for their small size, rapid mass transport, fast response, and high spatiotemporal resolution, have been recognized as a powerful tool in biosensing, especially for single-cell analysis. However, the nanoelectrode itself has no selectivity and cannot respond to nonelectroactive substances, limiting its wide application to some extent. Herein, we propose a simple and efficient electrochemical conjugation strategy to develop an electrochemical aptamer-coupled (E-AC) sensor for detecting adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in single living cells.

Ferrocene (Fc)-based disulfide molecules of various lengths with amino acid scaffolds and alkane or oligo(phenylene-ethynylene) (OPE) bridges are used in a mixed SAM with a di-(ethylene oxide) terminal mercaptoundecanol diluent (PEG). The relative height of the Fc redox reporter in the SAM is compared to determine if there are protective effects like antifouling and specific detection. The HaloTag-binding motif is used as a proof-of-concept to investigate the electrochemical response to the HaloTag protein due to its known covalent and fast linkage.

Accurate and reliable detection of uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) activity is crucial for clinical diagnosis and prognosis assessment. However, current techniques for accurately monitoring UDG activity still face significant challenges due to the single input or output signal modes. Here, we develop a sequentially activated-dumbbell DNA nanodevice (SEAD) that enables precise and reliable evaluation of UDG activity through primer exchange reactions (PER)-based orthogonal signal output.

In situ and quantitative measurements of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) in single living cells are highly desired for understanding several sorts of necessary physiological and pathological processes. Due to its small size and high sensitivity, an ultra-microelectrode can be used for single-cell analysis. However, ATP is difficult to detect in single cells because it is nonelectroactive and low in content.

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.
