An isothermal, one-pot toolbox (called OPT-Cas) based on CRISPR-Cas12a collateral cleavage capability is proposed for highly sensitive and selective determination of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) activity. Oligonucleotide primers with 3′-hydroxyl (OH) terminal were randomly introduced for TdT-induced elongation. In the presence of TdT, dTTP nucleotides polymerized at the 3′ terminals of the primers to generate abundant polyT-tails, which function as triggers for the synchronous activation of Cas12a proteins. Finally, the activated Cas12a trans-cleaved FAM and BHQ1 dual-labeled single-stranded DNA (ssDNA-FQ) reporters, producing significantly amplified fluorescence signals. This one-pot assay, that is primer, crRNA, Cas12a protein and ssDNA-FQ reporter are all in one tube, allows simple but high-sensitive quantification of TdT activity with a low detection limit of 6.16 × 10−5 U μL−1 in the concentration scope from 1 × 10−4 U μL−1 to 1 × 10−1 U μL−1, and achieves extraordinary selectivity with other interfering proteins. Furthermore, the OPT-Cas was successfully used to detect TdT in complex matrices and accurate determination of TdT activity in acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells, which might be a reliable technique platform for the diagnosis of TdT-related diseases and biomedical research applications.

基于 CRISPR-Cas12a 的一锅式工具箱可以确定用于急性白血病筛查的末端脱氧核苷酸转移酶活性

提出了一种基于 CRISPR-Cas12a 侧链切割能力的等温单罐工具箱(称为 OPT-Cas),用于高度灵敏和选择性地测定末端脱氧核苷酸转移酶 (TdT) 活性。随机引入具有 3'-羟基 (OH) 末端的寡核苷酸引物用于 TdT 诱导的延伸。在 TdT 存在的情况下,dTTP 核苷酸在引物的 3' 末端聚合,产生丰富的 polyT 尾巴,作为 Cas12a 蛋白同步激活的触发器。最后,激活的 Cas12a反式-切割 FAM 和 BHQ1 双标记单链 DNA (ssDNA-FQ) 报告基因,产生显着放大的荧光信号。这种一锅法检测,即引物、crRNA、Cas12a 蛋白和 ssDNA-FQ 报告基因都在一个试管中,允许对 TdT 活性进行简单但高灵敏度的定量,检测限低至 6.16 × 10 −5 U μL −1在浓度范围从 1 × 10 −4 U μL −1到 1 × 10 −1 U μL −1, 并与其他干扰蛋白实现非凡的选择性。此外,OPT-Cas已成功用于检测复杂基质中的TdT,并准确测定急性淋巴细胞白血病细胞中的TdT活性,这可能为TdT相关疾病的诊断和生物医学研究应用提供可靠的技术平台。
