Abstrakt: In this study we developed a novel diagnostic tool for the detection of miRNA21, based on the fluorescent nucleotide morpholine naphthalimide deoxyuridine (dUrkTP). We incorporated dUrkTP into DNA through primer extension to obtain rkDNA displaying high fluorescence. We then used lambda exonuclease, a specific nuclease for 3́-monophosphate-containing DNA, to separate rkDNA from its complementary sequence. The fluorescence of the free rkDNA was quenched dramatically upon interacting with graphene oxide (GO). Our rkDNA-GO fluorescence probing system exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity for the detection of miRNA21. This inexpensive probing system, employing simple primer extension and exonuclease degradation, required only 30 min to detect its target miRNA. This strategy appears suitable for the detection of diverse types of miRNA.
