摘要

This study presents a convenient and efficient dual-check strategy for detecting Monkeypox DNA utilizing the SERS (Surface-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy)-CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) system. The Monkeypox plasmid DNA (mpDNA) is recognized by the CRISPR RNA (crRNA)-Cas12a protein complex, where crRNA encompasses a targeting complementary sequence. Upon recognition, the trans-cleavage activity of Cas12a is activated and trans-cleaves the probe DNA (Cy3-ssDNA) which is modified on Au nanoparticles (AuNPs). As the ssDNA strand is cleaved, Cy3 molecules are released in the solution, while the amount of Cy3 modified on the AuNPs decreases. The free Cy3 molecules are collected from the supernatant, and their SERS intensities are measured using the silver nanopillar (AgNRs) substrate. The mpDNA with varying concentration from 5 nM to 0.5 fM can be quantitatively determined based on the SERS signals of free Cy3 and the collected nanotag. This strategy allows the detection of mpDNA with a concentration of 50 fM within 60 min. Moreover, the strategy can successfully detect single-base mutated mpDNA. Owing to the non-specific trans-cleavage activity of the protein, this strategy can be adapted to various nucleic acid detection scenarios by designing complementary RNA and DNA sequences.
