Abstract:
Based on the full understanding of the hydrolysis patterns of duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) against the probe DNAs in DNA/microRNA heteroduplexes, a simple and generic platform for highly specific and sensitive detection of microRNAs was developed by seamlessly integrating DSN-assisted target recycling amplification and strand displacement amplification in tandem.
