Objective:To establish a novel strategy based on proximity binding-induced entropy-driven amplification circuits for high-sensitivity detection of DNA. Methods:Target DNA was used to trigger proximity binding to form a sandwich complex with two affinity probes and then a proximity trigger,which lit up the entropy-driven amplification circuits by mediating branch migration for DNA detection. Results:Under the optimal experimental conditions,the DNA sensing strategy established in this study showed high sensi-tivity and selectivity,with a wide dynamic range of 0.01-100 nmol/L and a limit of detection as low as 6.7 pmol/L. Conclusion:This rapid,cost-effective,and highly efficient signal amplification strategy provides a simple and sensitive platform for DNA detection.
