摘要：
We used fluorescence spectroscopy to measure the binding affinity and provide new insights into the binding mechanism of cocaine and quinine with the cocaine-binding DNA aptamer. Using the intrinsic fluorescence of quinine and cocaine, we have observed quenching of ligand fluorescence upon binding of the aptamer. Quantification of this quenching provides an easy method to measure the binding constant using small amounts of sample. The observed quenching coupled with a red shift of the Stokes shift in the emission spectrum indicates that quinine and cocaine interact with the aptamer through stacking interactions.
