Abstract:
Based on a template of the telomere elongation reaction of a telomerase substrate primer in the presence of telomerase, the strand-displacement process was used to prepare a fluorescence signal nanoprobe. An amplified fluorescence detection of telomerase activity in cancer cells is described in this manuscript.

Fluorescent recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a fluorescent-protein-based detection technique used to quantify protein movement rates within the cell. This method exposes a small portion of the cell to an intense laser beam. The laser beam causes permanent photobleaching of the fluorophore-tagged proteins in the exposed region. As the bleached...
