A proximity-dependent surface hybridization strategy for constructing an efficient signal-on electrochemical DNAzyme sensing system.

ABSTRACT

A proximity-dependent surface hybridization strategy is employed for designing a "signal-on" electrochemical DNAzyme biosensor. By taking advantage of the high sensitivity of the PDSH strategy, and by realizing the enzymatic hydrolysis reaction in a homogenous system with a unimolecular design, the proposed biosensor shows a very high sensitivity to target molecules.
