제목 A rapid and sensitive strategy for the detection of long RNA targets via invasive cleavage reaction and toehold-mediated rolling circle amplification
초록 ​An intriguing combination of DNA-processing enzymes enables them to transform into a new generation of molecular diagnostic tools. Here, we report an isothermal amplification strategy by co-employing a structure-specific endonuclease (flap endonuclease 1, FEN1) and a strand displacing-DNA polymerase (Bst DNA polymerase) to detect long RNA targets. This approach couples FEN1-driven invasive cleavage reaction with toehold-mediated rolling circle amplification (iFEN-tRCA), allowing for highly selective and sensitive detection of long RNA targets and offering a detection limit below 10 pM within 1 hr. By using human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2, encoded by ERBB2) as a target, we demonstrate the feasibility and quantitative capability of the iFEN-tRCA assay to determine ERBB2 mRNA levels in human breast cancer cells. Therefore, we envision that the developed assay could provide a suitable molecular diagnostic tool.
