Applications of CRISPR/Cas12. A. RAA-based E-CRISPR, uses MB to modify the ssDNA reporter gene and assemble it on the working electrode, the sample is first amplified by RAA, when the target sequence exists, non-specifically cleaves the MB-modified reporter gene on the electrode surface, finally analyzed by SWV to measure the microelectrochemical signal before and after the introduction of the target nucleic acid sequence; B. EIS-CRISPR, fixes ssDNA on a gold electrode to limit the electronic communication between the electrode and the solution; when the target DNA exists, the Cas12/gRNA system binds to the target DNA and trans-cleaves the ssDNA on the gold electrode and accelerates the electron transfer between the electrode and the solution, detecting subtle changes in the electrode surface current at last (Modified after Li et al., Diagnostics 2022, 12(10); Copyright: CC BY License)
