Label-free and near-zero-background-noise photoelectrochemical assay of methyltransferase activity based on a Bi2S3/Ti3C2 Schottky junction

Herein, a novel label-free photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing platform with near-zero background noise was developed for M.SssI CpG methyltransferase (M.SssI MTase) activity assay based on a new Schottky junction of Bi2S3/Ti3C2 nanosheets. The proposed PEC sensor exhibited a low detection limit and a high signal-to-noise ratio for M.SssI MTase assay.
