Tracking the changes : The switchable translocation of a nucleic acid strand with a methylene blue (MB + ) redox group on a DNA track associated with a surface can be triggered by adenosine monophosphate (AMP, green) and adenosine deaminase (purple, see picture); the latter converts AMP into inosine monophosphate (orange). The motion of the nucleic acid can be followed by the electrochemical, photo‐electrochemical, and fluorescence signals.
