Zusammenfassung: | Herein, an amplified and renewable electrochemical biosensor was developed via bienzymatic cascade catalysis of glucose oxidase (GOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP), which were confined in a functional Y-shaped DNA nanostructure oriented by a dual-thiol-ended hairpin probe (dSH-HP) with a paired stem as a rigid scaffold and unpaired loop as enclosed binding platform. For proof-of-concept assay of sequence-specific biomarker DNA related to Alzheimer's disease (aDNA), GOx and redox ferrocene-modified HRP (Fc@HRP) were chemically conjugated in two enzyme strands (GOx-ES1 and Fc@HRP-ES2), respectively. The repeated recycling of aDNA was powered by the displacement of GOx-ES1 by aDNA and exonuclease III (ExoIII)-assisted cleavage reaction for amplified output of numerous GOx-ES1 as dependent transducers, together with Fc@HRP-ES2 which was simultaneously hybridized with dSH-HP to assemble this DNA structure. Rationally, the bienzymatic cascade catalysis was motivated through GOx-catalyzed glucose oxidization to in situ generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and overlapped HRP-catalyzed H2O2 decomposition to promote the electron transfer, producing significantly enhanced electrochemical signal of Fc with an ultrahigh sensitivity down to 0.22 fM of aDNA. Benefited from the unique design of dSH-HP-oriented bienzymatic cascades, this one-step strategy without non-specific blockers passivation was simple and renewable, and would pave a promising avenue for sensitive electrochemical assay of biomolecules.
