Cationic Polythiophene-based Colorimetric Assay for Probing the Activity of Protein Kinase A
In this work, a novel colorimetric assay based on polythiophene derivative (PMNT) was designed for the detection of protein kinase A (PKA). PKA can catalyze the phosphorylation of peptide, leading to the conformation change of PMNT from random-coil to planar, with the disappearance of absorption peaks above 500 nm and a color change from pink to yellow. The fabricated assay exhibits a wide linear range of 0.05 – 20 U/mL with a detection limit of 0.02 U/mL for PKA activity detection. The proposed protocol has promising prospects for use in clinical diagnosis related to PKA activity.
