Target detection by the naked eye: The action of an RNA-cleaving allosteric DNAzyme in response to ligand binding was coupled to a rolling circle amplification process to generate long single-stranded DNA molecules for colorimetric sensing (see scheme). Upon hybridization of the resulting DNA with a complementary PNA sequence in the presence of a duplex-binding dye, the color of the dye changed from blue to purple.
将响应配体结合的RNA切割变构DNA酶的作用与滚环扩增过程偶联,以生成用于比色传感的长单链DNA分子(见示意图)。在双链结合染料存在的情况下,所得DNA与互补PNA序列杂交后,染料颜色从蓝色变为紫色。
