Biomineralized nanoparticles enable an enzyme-assisted DNA signal amplification in living cells

Abstract

The enzymatic-assisted signal amplification of DNA sensors is rarely applied in living cells due to the difficulties in protein delivery. In this study, we have proposed a biomineralization-based DNA nanoprobe to transport nucleases and DNA sensors for enzyme-assisted imaging of microRNA in living cells.
