Title: Photoluminescent organisms: how to make fungi glow through biointegration with lanthanide metal-organic frameworks. Author: Rosário J, da Luz LL, Geris R, Ramalho JGS, da Silva AF, Júnior SA, Malta M. Journal: Sci Rep; 2019 May 13; 9(1):7302. PubMed ID: 31086220. Abstract: We show that filamentous fungi can emit green or red light after the accumulation of particulate lanthanide metal-organic frameworks over the cell wall. These new biohybrids present photoluminescence properties that are unaffected by the components of the cell wall. In addition, the fungal cells internalise lanthanide metal-organic framework particles, storing them into organelles, thereby making these materials promising for applications in living imaging studies.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
