A novel label-free colorimetric detection of l-histidine using Cu2+-modulated G-quadruplex-based DNAzymes
2018
Abstract We proposed a colorimetric method for l -histidine detection based on Cu 2+ -mediated DNAzyme and G-quadruplex-hemin complex catalyzed oxidation of 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS). In this system, after the addition of l -histidine, the formation of G-quadruplex-hemin complex will be disturbed, thus the colorimetric signal intensity conversely corresponds to the concentration of histidine. In this assay, a lower detection limit of l -histidine (50 nM) is addressed comparing to previously reported colorimetric methods. The cost is extremely low as the proposed design is both label-free and enzyme-free. All the more vitally, the colorimetric detection procedure is substantially straightforward with no further modification processes. By and large, the sensor can provide a promising plan for the detection of l -histidine.
