Detection of rare variant alleles using the AsCas12a double-stranded DNA trans-cleavage activity.

Abstract excerpt

The sensitive and accurate detection of rare mutations has profound clinical implications; however, current methods require expensive instrumentation and are laborious and time-consuming. Thus, there is a need for a probe-based alternative that can effectively discriminate single-base mutations. Recently, several groups have shown the potential of the CRISPR/Cas12a system for sensitive and selective DNA detection...
