41 results about "Dephosphorylation" patented technology

Dephosphorylation is the removal of a phosphate (PO₄³⁻) group from an organic compound by hydrolysis. It is a reversible post-translational modification. Dephosphorylation and its counterpart, phosphorylation, activate and deactivate enzymes by detaching or attaching phosphoric esters and anhydrides. A notable occurrence of dephosphorylation is the conversion of ATP to ADP and inorganic phosphate.

Tandem responsive self-assembly molecular probes and applications thereof

This invention discloses a tandem-responsive self-assembled molecular probe and its applications. The HPO-CYFF-TPP of this invention is converted to HO-CYFF-TPP under the dephosphorylation of overexpressed ALP, restoring the intramolecular charge transfer effect. It then self-assembles into nanoparticles in situ through π-π stacking, exhibiting fluorescence signal quenching and photoacoustic signal enhancement at low viscosity. Upon laser irradiation, the NPs generate a large amount of singlet oxygen in the mitochondria, thereby achieving efficient photodynamic therapy (PDT) and leading to increased viscosity. At high viscosity, due to the suppression of the distorted intramolecular charge transfer effect of HO-CYFF-TPP, the NPs activate the FL signal with a high signal-to-noise ratio and further enhance the PA signal. Therefore, the HPO-CYFF-TPP of this invention can achieve efficient PDT and enable real-time therapeutic effect assessment through FL / PA signals.
