Abstract excerpt
One-pot CRISPR diagnostics face a fundamental incompatibility: isothermal nucleic acid amplification enables rapid target accumulation, whereas CRISPR activation irreversibly consumes those substrates, destabilizing reaction kinetics. Here we show that reaction order can be programmed into DNA primers through thermodynamic design. Differences in primer-binding strength create two sequential amplification stages,...
