文摘Diagnostic C9orf72 hexanucleotide repeat expansions(C9-HRE)is essential for the early and accurate diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS)and will provide support for the prognosis and gene therapy of ALS.In the present study,by combining catalytic hairpin assembly(CHA)with Mycobacterium smegmatis porin A(MspA)nanopore,a new nanopore-based strategy for the detection of C9-HRE was reported.Less than 30 repeats of C9-HRE could be detected via this method,and the results have the potential to help distinguish between patients and healthy individuals.Moreover,the method demonstrated its great specificity for C9-HRE by identifying other repeat expansions.Given the high selectivity,this approach had been successfully used to detect C9-HRE in cell and blood samples with high accuracy.This detection strategy is user-friendly and has a strong anti-interference ability,thus providing a powerful tool for clinical diagnosis.

文摘Microbial fuel cells have already been used as biosensors to monitor assimilable organic carbon(AOC).However,their signal production from AOC is known to be completely suppressed by dissoved oxygen(DO).In this study,two identical microbial electrolysis cell(MEC)based biosensors were inoculated with marine sediment and operated at two different anodic potentials,namely-300 mV and+250 mV relative to Ag/AgCl.The MEC biosensor operated under positive anodic potential conditions had electrochemically active microbial communities on the anode,including members of the Shewanellaceae,Pseudoalteromonadaceae,and Clostridiaceae families.However,the strictly anaerobic members of the Desulfuromonadaceae,Desulfobulbaceae and Desulfobacteraceae families were found only in the negative anodic potential MEC biosensor.The positive anodic potential MEC biosensor showed several other advantages as well,such as faster start-up,significantly higher maximum current production,fivefold improvement in the AOC detection limit,and tolerance of low dissolved oxygen,compared to those obtained from the negative anodic potential MEC biosensor.The developed positive anodic potential MEC biosensor can thus be used as a real-time and inexpensive detector of AOC concentrations in high saline and low DO seawater.
文摘生物传感器已经成为实时监测特定小分子和精确控制生物系统中基因表达的强大工具。用于1,4-丁二胺生物合成的高通量传感器可以极大地提高1,4-丁二胺高产菌株的筛选效率。为研究调整生物传感器特性的策略,本研究开发了一种以转录调节因子PuuR为基础的1,4-丁二胺生物传感器,其同源的操作子puuO被组装在大肠杆菌组成型启动子PgapA中,以控制下游的高能绿色荧光蛋白(superfolder green fluorescent protein,sfGFP)作为报告蛋白表达。最终该传感器在1,4-丁二胺浓度处于0–50 mmol/L时GFP/OD600值与1,4-丁二胺浓度之间能稳定地表现出线性关系。本研究采用大肠杆菌基因组中不同强度的启动子对1,4-丁二胺生物传感器进行分子改造,探究并改进基于PuuR的1,4-丁二胺生物传感器的功能性质,为高通量筛选高产1,4-丁二胺的工程菌株奠定了基础。
文摘Diabetes is a condition that can come to the surface at any point throughout a person’s life. Although Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes have different triggers that cause them to arise, a person can experience similar complications from either if not monitored and treated accordingly. Through the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial, it was found that a significant way to monitor diabetes is through glucose levels in a person’s body. The research surrounding glucose monitoring dates to the mid-1800s, with the first successful reagent for glucose testing being developed in 1908. Since then, glucose sensing has become one of the most rapidly growing areas of research and development in biosensor technology, creating a competitive market for more advanced, accurate, and convenient glucose monitoring. This article reviews the history of biosensors used for glucose monitoring, and major advancements in biosensor technology to enhance performance and improve quality of life for patients with diabetes.
文摘The current major issue in improving detection sensitivity and selectivity is to design an electrochemical sensor that does not require PCR amplification for nucleic acid identification and measurement. Because of their great sensitivity, precision, and simplicity of downsizing, electrochemical biosensors have emerged as a research hotspot in the field of nucleic acid detection. The CRISPR/Cas12 system has emerged as a potent tool for nucleic acid detection due to its powerful cleavage activity and selectivity. Specific electrode changes combined with the CRISPR/Cas12 system can greatly improve the performance of electrochemical biosensors. In this study, the design concepts of electrochemical biosensors based on the CRISPR/Cas12 system and their application advancements in nucleic acid detection are discussed.
