Allele-Specific CRISPR-Cas9-Based Ratiometric Fluorescence Platform for Portable EGFR L858R Mutation Detection.

Abstract excerpt

Effective detection of low-abundance EGFR L858R mutation from circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is critical for early stage NSCLC diagnosis. Here, a portable CRISPR-Cas9-based ratiometric fluorescence sensor was proposed. Typically, allele-specific activation of Cas9 and the trans-cleavage of Cy5/BHQ2-labeled blocker DNAs were achieved by engineering sgRNA to position the L858R mutation within the PAM region of Cas9,...
