Does fluorescein form a pi-pi bond with methylene blue?

28 April 2024 0 6K Report

We do biosensor research and I was wondering if a short single-stranded DNA base pair of 50 is tagged with methylene blue at one end (5' end) and fluorescein on the other end (3' end), will it coil upon itself such that these groups stack on each other or not?
