Monitoring of Enzymatic Proteolysis Using Self-Assembled Quantum Dot-Protein Substrate Sensors

(a) Composite PL spectra showing 520 nm QDs self-assembled with an increasing number of MyG116C-Cy3 per QD-conjugate. (b) FRET efficiency versus MyG-Cy3-to-QD ratio 𝑛, derived from the deconvoluted integrated QD PL intensity. Inset shows the corresponding PL intensity at 520 nm versus 𝑛. Similar data were collected for the 530 nm QD-MBP-Cy3 assemblies.
