A fluorescence immune assay designed to measure anti-nucleotide antibody activity is described based on the synthesis of a fluorescent nucleotide probe possessing a low fluorescence quantum yield when free in aqueous solution (neutral pH). The fluorophore, AmNS (1-naphthylamine-5-sulfonic acid), was

Intramolecular aromatic interactions in aqueous solution often lead to stacked conformation for model organic molecules. This designing principle was used to develop stacked and folded uridine nucleotide analogs that showed highly quenched fluoroscence in aqueous solution by attaching the fluorophore
On amino acid starvation, Escherichia coli cells exhibit an adaptive facility termed the stringent response. This is characterized by the production of high levels of a regulatory nucleotide, ppGpp, and concomitant curtailment in rRNA synthesis. Various studies reported earlier indicated

In the previous paper we demonstrated that uridine-5'-beta-1-(5-sulfonic acid) naphthylamidate (UDPAmNS) is a stacked and quenched fluorophore that shows severalfold enhancement of fluorescence in a stretched conformation. UDPAmNS was found to be a powerful competitive inhibitor (Ki = 0.2 mM)
