Conjugated polyelectrolytes (CPEs) have recently emerged as label-free materials for biosensing due to their intrinsic ability to transduce an amplified optical signal in response to interactions with different analytes. Herein, the conformational change of an anionic oligothiophene is exploited to generate a unique fluorescent response upon interaction with myristoylcholine (MyrCh). The variations observed in spectroscopic signals are explained in terms of a synergistic combination of hydrophobic and electrostatic forces involving the oligothiophene chains and MyrCh molecules, inducing the disassembling of oligothiophene chains. The enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is able to reverse this effect by catalyzing the hydrolysis of MyrCh; hence, its enzymatic activity can be monitored through the variation of fluorescence emission of the system. The oligothiophene sensing probe retains its conformational sensitivity with regard to the AChE-mediated cleavage of MyrCh upon immobilization onto a quartz substrate, which is accomplished by a "grafting onto" approach based on click chemistry. These results are encouraging for the further development of such a label-free system towards the fabrication of sensing devices that would incorporate CPEs and would be potentially useful for the specific detection of a wide range of bioanalytes.
