crRNA is a component of the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) used in our MB-ERC2 system. It is responsible for guiding the RNP toward the amplicon and for activating Cas12a trans-cleavage via binding to complementary sequences of the Cas12a detection module on the padlocks, which cuts the link between fluorophore and quencher, releasing fluorescence signals. | crRNA is a component of the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) used in our MB-ERC2 system.

Background
crRNA is a component of the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) used in our MB-ERC2 system. It is responsible for guiding the RNP toward the amplicon and for activating Cas12a trans-cleavage via binding to complementary sequences of the Cas12a detection module on the padlocks, which cuts the link between fluorophore and quencher, releasing fluorescence signals.

crRNA contains a hairpin (ACU-A-AGU) and a sequence identical to the Cas12a detection module on our padlocks (aside for the T-U difference in DNA-RNA).
Results
crRNA is an integral part of all our MB-ERC2 reactions. Specifically, it is connected with RNP concentrations. Figures 1-3 are results from RNP concentration trials carried out with 1 pM and 10 pM miRNA.
