DNA walking system integrated with enzymatic cleavage reaction for sensitive surface plasmon resonance detection of miRNA.

ABSTRACT: Abnormal expression levels of miRNA are associated with various tumor diseases, for example, glioma tumors are characterized by the up-regulation of miRNA-182. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) assay for miRNA-182 from glioma patients was performed via DNA walking amplification strategy. The duplex between aminated swing arm DNA (swDNA) and block DNA (blDNA), and aminated track DNA (trDNA) with a biotin tag were tethered on the poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-modified chips. Upon formation of miRNA/blDNA duplex, the SPR signal decreased with the walking process of swDNA, as the biotinylated fragment of trDNA (biotin-TTGGAGT) was detached from the sensor surface caused by the nicking endonuclease Nb.BbvCI. Such a repeated hybridization and cleavage cycle occurred continuously and the detachment o
