Engineered LwaCas13a with enhanced collateral activity for nucleic acid detection

Jie Yang et al.

Summary: In this study, we successfully engineered the Leptotrichia wadei (Lwa) Cas13a protein by inserting different RNA-binding domains, resulting in enhanced collateral activity and improved sensitivity. By combining with an electrochemical method, our engineered variants showed the capability to detect the SARS-CoV-2 genome at extremely low concentrations without target preamplification. This study provides a highly sensitive approach for nucleic acid detection.

Programming the trans-cleavage Activity of CRISPR-Cas13a by Single-Strand DNA Blocker and Its Biosensing Application

Xiaoling Liu et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that a simple ssDNA probe can efficiently block the trans-cleavage activity of the CRISPR-Cas13a system without any modification, under low Mg2+ concentration. The blocked activity can be recovered by specific release of the DNA blocker from crRNA in a target-responsive manner, providing a convenient method for quantifying various biomarkers. This discovery enriches the CRISPR-Cas13a sensing toolbox and greatly expands its application scope.

Kinetics Accelerated CRISPR-Cas12a Enabling Live-Cell Monitoring of Mn2+ Homeostasis

Shiyi Xie et al.

Summary: In this study, the CRISPR/Cas12a system was utilized as a direct sensing system for Mn2+ detection in living cells. It was found that Mn2+ can accelerate the cleavage kinetics of Cas12a, allowing for robust detection of Mn2+ in complex biological samples and in the cytoplasm of living cells. The system was also applied to study the cytotoxicity of Mn2+ in nerve cells.

A CRISPR-based ultrasensitive assay detects attomolar concentrations of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in clinical samples

Yanan Tang et al.

Summary: Here, we report an ultrasensitive CRISPR-based antibody detection (UCAD) assay that translates the detection of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies into CRISPR-based nucleic acid detection in a homogeneous solution and is 10,000 times more sensitive than the classic immunoassays. The clinical validation using serum samples shows that UCAD has 100% sensitivity and 98.5% specificity. With ultrahigh sensitivity, UCAD enables the quantitative analysis of serum anti-SARS-CoV-2 levels in vaccinated kidney transplant recipients who are shown to produce undetectable anti-SARS-CoV-2 using standard immunoassay.
