A Both-End Blocked Peroxidase-Mimicking DNAzyme for Low-Background Chemiluminescent Sensing of miRNA.
ACS Sensors 2017 June 24
G-quadruplex DNAzymes that exhibited peroxidase-like activity have been shown to be appealing reporters for amplified readout of biosensing events simply by their formation or dissociation in the presence of analytes. For low background signaling, the efficient preblock of DNAzymes is critically important. Herein, we report a both-end blocked DNAzyme beacon strategy for chemiluminescent biosensing. The catalytic activity of peroxidase-mimicking DNAzyme can be inactivated fully by fixing both ends of the DNAzyme sequence, and easily recovered via a strand displace reaction between the miRNA and the block DNA. The efficient block and recovery of DNAzymes provide the both-end blocked beacon the highest signal-to-background ratio (over 25) among the reported DNAzymes for amplification-free detection of miRNA. As a result, the beacon allowed detection of subpicomolar miRNA without any labeling and amplification procedures, which is about 40-fold more sensitive than the traditional hairpin fluorescence beacon. Also, it exhibited excellent discrimination ability that can distinguish single-base mismatch miRNA. The simplicity, high sensitivity, and selectivity provided by the beacon make it a promising alternative tool for nucleic acid detection.
