Detection of low-abundance mutations for the early discovery of fungicide-resistant fungal pathogens is highly demanded, but remains challenging. Herein, we developed a dual-recognition strategy, termed PARPA, involving s Argonaute (pfAgo)-mediated elimination of wild-type fungal genes and CRISPR/Cas12a-based amplicon recognition. This assay can detect fungicide-resistant at relative abundances as low as 0.05% and has potential for achieving early screening of fungicide-resistant fungal pathogens.
对于早期发现抗真菌剂的真菌病原体而言,检测低丰度突变的需求迫切,但仍具有挑战性。在此,我们开发了一种双识别策略,称为PARPA,它涉及嗜热栖热菌Argonaute(pfAgo)介导的野生型真菌基因消除和基于CRISPR/Cas12a的扩增子识别。该检测方法能够检测低至0.05%相对丰度的抗真菌剂,并具有实现抗真菌剂抗性真菌病原体早期筛查的潜力。
