Discovery of oxidative catalysis with G-quadruplex•hemin constructs prompted a range of exciting developments in the field of biosensor design. Thus, G-quadruplex based DNAzymes with peroxidase activity found a niche as signal transduction modules in a wide range of analytical applications. The ability of nucleic acid scaffolds to recognise a variety of practically meaningful markers and to translate the recognition events into conformational changes powers numerous sensor design possibilities. In this work, we establish a catalase activity of G-quadruplex•hemin scaffolds. Catalase activated hydrogen peroxide decomposition generates molecular oxygen that forms bubbles. Observation of bubbles is a truly equipment free signal readout platform that is highly desirable in limited resources or do-it-yourself environments. We take a preliminary insight into a G-quadruplex structure—folding topology—catalase activity correlation and establish efficient operating conditions. Further, we demonstrate the platform's potential as a signal transduction modality for reporting on biomolecular recognition using an oligonucleotide as a proof—of—concept target. Ultimately, activatable catalases based on G-quadruplex•hemin scaffolds promise to become valuable contributors towards accessible molecular diagnostics applications.
