Abstract:Building dynamic biological networks, especially DNA circuits, has provided a powerful prospect for exploring the intrinsic regulation processes of live cells. Nevertheless, for efficient intracellular microRNA analysis, the available multi-component circuits are constrained by their limited operating speed and efficiency due to the free diffusion of reactants. Herein, we developed an accelerated Y-shaped DNA catalytic (YDC) circuit for high-efficiency intracellular imaging of microRNA. By grafting the catalyt… Show more
“…79 Later, Wang's group developed a localized and self-sustainable Y-shaped DNA catalytic circuit for the in situ imaging of intracellular miRNA. 80 By grafting three CHA hairpin reactants on a Y-shaped scaffold, the reactants were concentrated in a constrained space to obtain accelerated reaction kinetics and high-contrast readout signals. The products of former CHA reactions could be applied as templates for subsequent CHA reactions to complete DNA self-sustained assembly and obtain cross-linked hyperbranched DNA products.…”
