Nucleic Acid Detection through RNA-Guided Protease Activity in Type III-E CRISPR-Cas Systems.

RNA-guided protease activity was recently discovered in the type III-E CRISPR-Cas systems (Craspase), providing a novel platform for engineering a protein probe instead of the commonly used nucleic acid probe in nucleic acid detection assays. Here, by adapting a fluorescence readout technique using the affinity- and fluorescent protein dual-tagged Csx30 protein substrate, we have established an assay monitoring Csx30 cleavage by target ssRNA-activated Craspase. Four Craspase-based nucleic acid detection systems for genes from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), norovirus, and the influenza virus (IFV) were reconstituted with demonstrated specificity.
