A universal split spinach aptamer (USSA) for nucleic acid analysis and DNA computation

Abstract

We demonstrate how a single universal spinach aptamer (USSA) probe can be used to detect multiple (potentially any) nucleic acid sequences. USSA can be used for cost-efficient and highly selective analysis of even folded DNA and RNA analytes, as well as for the readout of outputs of DNA logic circuits.
