DNA information storage provides an excellent solution for metadata storage due to its high density, programmability, and long-term stability. However, current research in DNA storage primarily focuses on the processes of storing and reading data, lacking comprehensive solutions for the secure metadata wiping. Herein, we present a method of random sanitization in DNA information storage using CRISPR-Cas12a (RSDISC) based on precise control of the thermodynamic energy of primer-template hybridization. We utilize the collateral cleavage (trans-activity) of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) by CRISPR-Cas12a to achieve selective sanitization of files in metadata. This method enables ssDNA degradation with different GC content, lengths, and secondary structures to achieve a sanitization efficiency up to 99.9% for 28,258 oligonucleotides in DNA storage within one round. We demonstrate that the number of erasable files could reach 1011.7based on a model of primer-template hybridization efficiency. Overall, RSDISC provides a random sanitization approach to set the foundation of information encryption, file classification, memory deallocation and accurate reading in DNA data storage.
