FRAME: flap endonuclease 1-engineered PAM module for precise and sensitive modulation of CRISPR/Cas12a trans-cleavage activity.
CRISPR/Cas12a system, renowned for its precise recognition and efficient nucleic acid cleavage capabilities, has demonstrated remarkable performance in molecular diagnostics and biosensing. However, the reported Cas12a activity regulation methods often involved intricate CRISPR RNA (crRNA) structural adjustments or costly chemical modifications, which limited their applications. Here, we demonstrated a unique enzyme activity engineering strategy using flap endonuclease 1 (FEN1) to regulate the accessibility of the protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) module in the double-stranded DNA activator (FRAME). By identifying the three-base overlapping structure between the target inputs and substrate, FEN1 selectively cleaved and released the 5'-flap containing the 'TTTN' sequence, which triggered the secondary cleavage of FEN1 while forming a nicked PAM, ultimately achieving the sensitive switching of Cas12a's activity. The FRAME strategy exemplified the 'two birds with one stone' principle, as it not only precisely programmed Cas12a's activity but also simultaneously triggered isothermal cyclic amplification. Moreover, the FRAME strategy was applied to construct a sensing platform for detecting myeloperoxidase and miR-155, which demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity. Importantly, it proved its versatility in detecting multiple targets using a single crRNA without redesign. Collectively, the FRAME strategy opens up a novel avenue for modulating Cas12a's activity, promising immense potential in the realm of medical diagnostics.
期刊介绍:
Nucleic Acids Research (NAR) is a scientific journal that publishes research on various aspects of nucleic acids and proteins involved in nucleic acid metabolism and interactions. It covers areas such as chemistry and synthetic biology, computational biology, gene regulation, chromatin and epigenetics, genome integrity, repair and replication, genomics, molecular biology, nucleic acid enzymes, RNA, and structural biology. The journal also includes a Survey and Summary section for brief reviews. Additionally, each year, the first issue is dedicated to biological databases, and an issue in July focuses on web-based software resources for the biological community. Nucleic Acids Research is indexed by several services including Abstracts on Hygiene and Communicable Diseases, Animal Breeding Abstracts, Agricultural Engineering Abstracts, Agbiotech News and Information, BIOSIS Previews, CAB Abstracts, and EMBASE.
