Sensitive Detection of Small-Molecule Targets Using Cooperative Binding Split Aptamers and Enzyme-Assisted Target Recycling

Abstract: Signal amplification via enzyme-assisted target recycling (EATR) offers a powerful means for improving the sensitivity of DNA detection assays, but it has proven challenging to employ EATR with aptamer-based assays for small-molecule detection due to insensitive target response of aptamers. Here, we describe a general approach for the development of rapid and sensitive EATR-amplified small-molecule sensors based on cooperative binding split aptamers (CBSAs). CBSAs contain two target-binding domains and exhibit… Show more

“…Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been widely employed with aptamers as sensitive signal reporters for visual small-molecule detection. 8–11 However, aptamer-modified AuNPs have several drawbacks. In particular, the production of modified AuNPs is costly, laborious, and time-consuming, and the process is often plagued by batch-to-batch variation.…”

“…A general approach to sensitively detect small molecules using the EATR technique has been recently developed. 65 To maximize a target-dependent response, cooperative binding split aptamers were employed for the development of EATRamplified biosensors rather than single-domain split aptamers. Specifically, two aptamer domains were linked together by a duplexed C3 spacer abasic site that can be recognized and cleaved by Exo III.…”
