substrate<br />

receptor<br />

signaling unit receptor substrate<br />

The basic principle of molecular<br />

recognition : for any given substrate,<br />

a receptor possessing geometrical<br />

(structural) <strong>and</strong> bonding (chemical)<br />

features for specific interactions can<br />

be designed.<br />

Assembling a receptor, a spacer, <strong>and</strong><br />

a signaling unit makes a sensor.
