Abstract excerpt
The Zn(2+)-dependent ligation DNAzyme is implemented as a biocatalyst for the amplified detection of a target DNA by the autonomous replication of a nucleic acid reporter unit that is generated by the catalyzed ligation process. The reporter units enhance the formation of active DNAzyme units, thus leading to the isothermal autocatalytic formation of the reporter elements. The system was further developed and...
