Abstract:
This work presented an innovative and rationally engineered palindromic molecular beacon (PMB) based "Z-scheme" photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensing protocol for the selective screening of kanamycin (Kana) through DNA hybridization-induced conformational conversion. Interestingly, the ingeniously designed PMB integrated the multifunctional elements including recognition region, primer-like palindromic fragment, and polymerization-nicking template. The cosensitized structures consisted of CdS quantum dot functionalized hairpin DNA2 (QD-HP2) and region-selectively deposited gold nanoparticles onto {001} facets of bismuth oxychloride (Bi0C1-Au). Compared with Bi0C1-Au alone, the attachment of CdS QDs onto Bi0C1-Au (i.e., BiOC1-Au-CdS QDs) exhibited evidently enhanced photocurrent intensity thanks to the synergistic effect of Z-scheme BiOC1-Au-CdS QDs. After incubation with target Kana, Kana-aptamer binding could induce the exposure of PMB region for hairpin DNA1 (HP1). The exposed palindromic tails hybridized with each other (like a molecular machine) to consume the substrates (dNTPs) and fuels (enzyme) for the releasing of numerous nick fragments (Nick). The as generated nick fragments could specifically hybridize with the complementary region of QD-HP2, thus resulting in decreasing photocurrent because of the increasing spatial distance for electron transfer between two-type photosensitizers. Under optimum conditions, the PMB-based sensing system exhibited satisfying photocurrent responses toward target Kana within the working range from 50 to 5000 fM at a low detection limit of 29 fM. Impressively, the concept of a palindromic fragment-mediated primer-free biosensing strategy offers a new avenue for advanced development of efficient and convenient biodetection systems.
