Fluorescence method for kanamycin detection based on the conversion of G-triplex and G-quadruplex

Chengke Wang et al.

Summary: A versatile fluorescence scaffold was constructed by connecting a G-triplex sequence with G-rich DNA and using Thioflavin T as the fluorescent molecule. The conformation of the G-quadruplex DNA was changed by the specific interaction of the aptamer and kanamycin, leading to a 'turn-on' to 'turn-off' detection principle for kanamycin detection. The detection method showed reasonable sensitivity and selectivity, successfully applied for kanamycin determination in pork, chicken, and beef samples.

An ultrasensitive and point-of-care strategy for enzymes activity detection based on enzyme extends activators to unlock the ssDNase activity of CRISPR/Cas12a (EdU-CRISPR/Cas12a)

Xiaolong Chen et al.

Summary: Enzymes are essential components of organisms, ensuring normal life activities. Abnormal enzyme activity can lead to dysfunction and disease. Establishing simple, sensitive, and timely detection of enzyme activity is crucial for biomedical testing and disease diagnosis and treatment. We developed a strategy for detecting T4 PNK, telomerase, or APE1 activity using enzyme extends activators to unlock CRISPR/Cas12a's ssDNase activity (EdU-CRISPR/Cas12a), achieving low detection limits through fluorescence and lateral flow assay methods. Our approach has the potential to greatly improve enzyme activity detection.
