Summary: | DNA microarrays have been applied for comprehensive genotyping, but remain a drawback in complicated operations. As a solution, we previously reported the solid-phase collateral cleavage (SPCC) system based on the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat/CRISPR-associated protein 12 (CRISPR/Cas12). Surface-immobilized Cas12-CRISPR RNA (crRNA) can directly hybridize target double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and subsequently produce a signal via the cleavage of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) reporter immobilized on the same spot. Therefore, SPCC-based multiplex dsDNA detection can be performed easily. This study reports the miniaturization of SPCC-based spots patterned by a non-contact printer and its performance in comprehensive genotyping on a massively accumulated array. Initially, printing, immobilization, and washing processes of Cas12-crRNA were established to fabricate the non-contact-patterned SPCC-based sensor array. A target dsDNA concentration response was obtained based on the developed sensor array, even with a spot diameter of 0.64 ± 0.05 mm. Also, the limit of detection was 572 pM, 531 pM, and 3.04 nM with 40, 20, and 10 nL-printing of Cas12-crRNA, respectively. Furthermore, the sensor array specifically detected three dsDNA sequences in one-pot multiplexing; therefore, the feasibility of comprehensive genotyping was confirmed. These results demonstrate that our technology can be miniaturized as a CRISPR/Cas12-based microarray by using non-contact printing. In the future, the non-contact-patterned SPCC-based sensor array can be applied as an alternative tool to DNA microarrays. |
