The padlock probe is essential to our experiments, especially the ligation and rolling circle amplification (RCA) steps. Both of these steps are included in the intermediary assays and our final MB-ERC2 (miRNA biomarker-based exponential RCP Cas12a/CRISPR) system. The general MB-ERC2 schematics is shown below in Figure 1.

Padlock-1274a is a 57 bp-long linear single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). It is composed of three sections: the miR-1274a binding site (ligation module), crRNA recognition site (Cas12a detection module), and the intermediate sequence. Figure 2 is a visualisation of the padlock probe construct.

Background

The padlock probe is essential to our experiments, especially the ligation and rolling circle amplification (RCA) steps. Both of these steps are included in the intermediary assays and our final MB-ERC2 (miRNA biomarker-based exponential RCP Cas12a/CRISPR) system. The general MB-ERC2 schematics is shown below in Figure 1.

Results

The RT-qPCR results for miR-1274a (BBa_K4664001) and miR-223 (BBa_K4664000), respectively. We selected some of the RT-qPCR by-concentration graphs (Figures 3-5), a significantly lower fluorescence level for miR-1274a is already observable. A T-test to determine the statistical difference between NC-U6 and miR-1274a was also conducted. The P value was 0.7835, indicating no statistically significant difference. For more information see Table 1.
After analysis of our results, we excluded miR-1274a as our target of detection due to its poor performance with RT-qPCR, the ‘golden standard’ and conventional miRNA detection method. MiR-223 yielded significantly better results than miR-1274a and negative control U6, therefore we selected it as our primary target of detection.
