TOPS-CRISPR: Thermally-regulated and oligonucleotide-mediated one-pot CRISPR-Cas12a assay for ultra-sensitive and rapid on-site diagnostics.
A Thermally regulated, Oligonucleotide-mediated one-Pot System for CRISPR-Cas12a (TOPS-CRISPR), which employs a programmable inhibition strategy based on complementary RNA blockers with tunable length and binding sites, enabling efficient and reversible steric inhibition of the LbCas12a-crRNA ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex, resolving the inherent contradiction between amplification and cleavage in one-pot assay.
