Furthermore, simultaneous and label-free mapping of molecular recognition and the determination of sample topography at the nanoscale gets possible. A prerequisite and one of the major parts in biosensing AFM are the bio-functionalized AFM tips. In the past decades, different approaches for tip functionalization have been developed. Using these functionalization strategies, several biological highly relevant interactions at the single molecule level have been explored. For the most common approach, the use of a heterobifunctional poly(ethylenglycol) crosslinker, a broad range of linkers for different chemical coupling strategies is available. Nonetheless, the time consuming functionalization protocol as well as the broad distribution of rupture length reduces the possibility of automation and may reduce the accuracy of the results. Here we present a stable and fast forward approach based on tetra-functional DNA tetrahedra. A fast functionalization and a sharp defined distribution of rupture length gets possible with low effort and high success rate. We tested the performance on the classical avidin biotin system by using tetrahedra with three disulfide legs for stable and site directed coupling to gold coated tips and a biotinylated end at the fourth vertex. A special advantage appears when working with a DNA aptamer as sensing molecule. In this case, the fourth strand can be extended by a certain DNA sequence complementary to the linkage part of an aptamer. This AFM tip functionalization protocol was applied on thrombin using DNA aptamers directed against the fibrinogen binding side of human thrombin.Therapy for diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is undergoing
