DNA enzymes are single-stranded DNA molecules with catalytic capabilities that are isolated from random-sequence DNA libraries by in vitro selection. This new class of catalytic biomolecules has the potential of being used as unique molecular tools in a variety of innovative applications. Here we describe the creation and characterization of an RNA-cleaving autocatalytic DNA, DEC22-18, that uniquely links chemical catalysis with real-time fluorescence signaling capability in the same molecule. A trans-acting DNA molecule, DET22-18, was also developed from DEC22-18 that behaves as a true enzyme with a k(cat) of similar to7 min(-1)-a rate constant that is the second largest ever reported for a DNA enzyme. It cleaves a chimeric RNA/DNA substrate at the lone RNA linkage surrounded by a closely spaced fluorophore-quencher pair-a unique structure that permits the synchronization of the chemical cleavage with fluorescence signaling. DET22-18 has a stem-loop structure and can be conjugated with DNA aptamers to form allosteric deoxyribozyme biosensors.
