A single quantum dot-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer biosensor for antibody-free detection of ten-eleven translocation 1

We developed a single quantum dot-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer biosensor for antibody-free detection of ten-eleven translocation 1 (TET1). This biosensor can sensitively detect TET1 in a homogeneous manner without the involvement of any specific antibodies, and it can be used for accurate measurement of TET1 activity in human neuroblastoma cells and the screening of TET1 inhibitors.
