“Like a two-way radio that can both receive and transmit radio waves, the fluorescent nanoantenna receives light in one colour, or wavelength, and depending on the protein movement it senses, then transmits light back in another colour, which we can detect.”

The following report is from Science Daily:

Researchers at Université de Montréal have created a nanoantenna to monitor the motions of proteins. Reported this week in Nature Methods, the device is a new method to monitor the structural change of proteins over time — and may go a long way to helping scientists better understand natural and human-designed nanotechnologies.

The results are so exciting that we are currently working on setting up a start-up company to commercialize and make this nanoantenna available to most researchers and the pharmaceutical industry.

Said UdeM chemistry professor Alexis Vallée-Bélisle, the study’s senior author

An Antenna That Works Like A Two-Way Radio

Over 40 years ago, researchers invented the first DNA synthesizer to create molecules that encode genetic information. “In recent years, chemists have realized that DNA can also be employed to build a variety of nanostructures and nanomachines,” added the researcher, who also holds the Canada Research Chair in Bioengineering and Bionanotechnology.

Inspired by the ‘Lego-like’ properties of DNA, with building blocks that are typically 20,000 times smaller than a human hair, we have created a DNA-based fluorescent nanoantenna, that can help characterize the function of proteins.

Like a two-way radio that can both receive and transmit radio waves, the fluorescent nanoantenna receives light in one colour, or wavelength, and depending on the protein movement it senses, then transmits light back in another colour, which we can detect.

One of the main innovations of these nanoantennae is that the receiver part of the antenna is also employed to sense the molecular surface of the protein studied via molecular interaction.

One of the main advantages of using DNA to engineer these nanoantennas is that DNA chemistry is relatively simple and programmable,” said Scott Harroun, an UdeM doctoral student in chemistry and the study’s first author.

The DNA-based nanoantennas can be synthesized with different lengths and flexibilities to optimize their function. One can easily attach a fluorescent molecule to the DNA, and then attach this fluorescent nanoantenna to a biological nanomachine, such as an enzyme.

By carefully tuning the nanoantenna design, we have created five nanometer-long antenna that produces a distinct signal when the protein is performing its biological function.

Fluorescent nanoantennas open many exciting avenues in biochemistry and nanotechnology, the scientists believe.

For example, we were able to detect, in real time and for the first time, the function of the enzyme alkaline phosphatase with a variety of biological molecules and drugs. This enzyme has been implicated in many diseases, including various cancers and intestinal inflammation.

Said Harroun

In addition to helping us understand how natural nanomachines function or malfunction, consequently leading to disease, this new method can also help chemists identify promising new drugs as well as guide nanoengineers to develop improved nanomachines.

Added Dominic Lauzon, a co-author of the study doing his PhD in chemistry at UdeM.

One main advance enabled by these nanoantennas is also their ease-of-use, the scientists said.

Perhaps what we are most excited by is the realization that many labs around the world, equipped with a conventional spectrofluorometer, could readily employ these nanoantennas to study their favourite protein, such as to identify new drugs or to develop new nanotechnologies.

AUTHOR COMMENTARY

I am not saying that it is, but based on what we know and have seen, this sounds like what the Covid vaccines can and are doing to an extent. It is similar at least.

Regardless, it further demonstrates the move forward into this age of transhumanism, where man merges with machine, and no longer God.

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?

Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

  • Some of you have let me know that you have not been getting your emails. I have been working on that. Part of the problem has been my email plugin has been facing it’s own glitch with certain email providers. Sorry for the inconveience. Please bear with me until I can get the problem resolved.

    • Great! The website glitch that happened in November messed up some settings, so I had to readjust some of them. But I am glad it is working better again. It was really annoying that I could not figure it out forever it seemed.

  • No doubt this connects with the jab and singularity….and how can we complain, ‘it’s for our own good’ and will tell us (and them) what’s happening in our bodies, where our bodies are geographically (even if lost in the metaverse), who’s useful to cultivate & milk for money & control with newly patented half-treatments & the next new thing til they’re dead; and who to ‘triage’ and prepare for happy euthanization to be added to the Miracle Meat sludge fungus food slurry right off the bat for the common good & so no one ever goes hungry again…..BLAH, blah, blah, BLAH…blah, blah, blah.

    BUT we can say with Job: Job 19:26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:

    and, be certain of these things in Psalm 7 …praising God & knowing that the righteousness that is in us is Christ & not our own righteousness, making certain that we’re upright & watching…ready, & that all will be well no matter what in the end. That he will never leave nor forsake us, always giving the grace necessary to the trials we are asked to face.

    Psalm 7:1-17 KJB ¶ Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite. O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
    Ps 7:2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
    Ps 7:3 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;
    Ps 7:4 If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)
    Ps 7:5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.
    Ps 7:6 Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast commanded.
    Ps 7:7 So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
    Ps 7:8 The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
    Ps 7:9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.

    Ps 7:10 ¶ My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.
    Ps 7:11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
    Ps 7:12 If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
    Ps 7:13 He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
    Ps 7:14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
    Ps 7:15 He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
    Ps 7:16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.
    Ps 7:17 I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.
