A novel DNA structure containing a 3' internal-loop modified abasic site has been constructed which enables effective differentiation between apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease (APE1) and nonspecific endonuclease (DNase I). When this unique substrate structure is employed, a double-loop frayed-end chimeric fluorescent probe is successfully developed for quantitative measurement of the activity of APE1 in biological samples without the need of additional cleanup or preconcentration steps. The method is simple and rapid and has a single-step with a linear working range between 0.1 and 5.0 U/mL and a lower limit of detection of 0.1 U/mL. It holds great potential in real-time monitoring of the variation of intracellular and extracellular APE1, which will be very useful for further understanding of the DNA repair pathways in different organisms.
