Polymerase/nicking enzyme powered dual-template multi-cycled G-triplex machine for HIV-1 determination
We proposed a dual-template multi-cycled DNA nanomachine driven by polymerase nicking enzyme with high efficiency. The reaction system simply consists of two templates (T1, T2) and two enzymes (KF polymerase, Nb.BbvCI). The two templates are similar in structure (X-X-Y, Y-Y-C): primer recognition region, primer analogue generation region, output region (3 to 5), and there is a nicking site between each two regions. Output of T1 is the primer of T2 and G-rich fragment (G3) is designed as the final products. In the presence of HIV-1, numerous of G3 were generated owing to the multi-cycled amplification strategy and formed into G-triplex ThT complex after the addition of thioflavin T (ThT), which greatly enhanced the fluorescence intensity as signal reporter in the label-free sensing strategy. A dynamic response range of 50 fM-2 nM for HIV-1 gene detection can be achieved through this multi-cycled G-triplex machine, and benefit from the high efficiency amplification strategy, enzymatic reaction can be completed within 45 minutes followed by fluorescence measurement. In addition, analysis of other targets can be achieved by replacing the template sequence. Thus there is a certain application potential for trace biomarker analysis in this strategy.
