Multiple CRISPR zones-driven ultrasensitive detection of DNA via CRISPR-Cas12a and ligation-rolling circle amplification
The ability to detect specific DNA, including single nucleotide variants (SNVs), with high sensitivity is essential for advancing genetic research, diagnostics, and personalized medicine. This study presents a novel method for ultrasensitive DNA detection, combining ligation-rolling circle amplification (L-RCA) with CRISPR-Cas12a. While L-RCA systems have been widely used for nucleic acid detection, the sensitivity of conventional L-RCA generally reaches approximately 100 pM. Here, we demonstrate that the sensitivity of RCA-Cas12a systems can be markedly enhanced by incorporating multiple CRISPR target regions into the padlock probe. This method achieves remarkable sensitivity, detecting DNA at concentrations as low as 1 aM (6 copies per reaction), and is capable of identifying single nucleotide variants (SNVs) with allele fractions as low as 1 %. Unlike many current complex RCA-Cas12a strategies, this approach is simple and does not require advanced labeling or instrumentation, making it a promising tool for ultrasensitive DNA detection in various applications.
期刊介绍:
Talanta provides a forum for the publication of original research papers, short communications, and critical reviews in all branches of pure and applied analytical chemistry. Papers are evaluated based on established guidelines, including the fundamental nature of the study, scientific novelty, substantial improvement or advantage over existing technology or methods, and demonstrated analytical applicability. Original research papers on fundamental studies, and on novel sensor and instrumentation developments, are encouraged. Novel or improved applications in areas such as clinical and biological chemistry, environmental analysis, geochemistry, materials science and engineering, and analytical platforms for omics development are welcome.
Analytical performance of methods should be determined, including interference and matrix effects, and methods should be validated by comparison with a standard method, or analysis of a certified reference material. Simple spiking recoveries may not be sufficient. The developed method should especially comprise information on selectivity, sensitivity, detection limits, accuracy, and reliability. However, applying official validation or robustness studies to a routine method or technique does not necessarily constitute novelty. Proper statistical treatment of the data should be provided. Relevant literature should be cited, including related publications by the authors, and authors should discuss how their proposed methodology compares with previously reported methods.
