First, we set to verify the self-cleavage of the design. In Figure Xa, the left column is , the right column is . The gel results demonstrated that Module can undergo self-cleavage. Next, let’s take a look at the tightness of the sensor. In Figure X, the left column is , the right one is . The lowest bands in the column represents the concentration of the reporter. We are disappointed to see that the reporter in both group has been cleaved. This showed our design can’t lock the activity of 8-17 when there is only Pb<sup>2+</sup> in the solution. The result is the same with 2-2.

Module 1

experiment

Is the activity of Cuzyme influenced by the presence of 8-17?

We used PAGE to evaluate the product after cutting with the control group. The logic gate was mixed with DNAzyme buffer and annealed. Cu2+ and vitamin C were added afterwards. Different fragments were separated using PAGE to examine the composition of product. The results were compared with the PAGE of original Cuzyme and substrate []. As we can see in the control group, the upper most band is the original Cuzyme, the one next to it is the substrate, the lowest band is one of the cleaved substrate, and the other cleaved substrate are too short to appear in PAGE. As for the experiment group, the upper most band is our designed logic gate, the band next to it is the logic gate after cutting. The lowest one are the same with control group. Finally, the other two band in between may be produced by the nonspecific cleavage due to vitamin C.

After qualitative characterization, we used the fluorescence intensity to quantify the efficiency of our design.

[[Image:]]

As we can see in Figure X, the logic gate concentration dropped with the increase of reaction time. This is the first kinetics curve of Cuzyme under the existence of Cu2+ and vitamin C ever measured. The figure showed more details about the kinetics of the self-cleavage of the logic gate. From the number of logic gates that are self-cleavage, we can estimate how many 8-17 are released in the solution . This kinetics figure will help us determine the process of interaction.

Can the structure really lock the binding arm of 8-17?

In the previous section, we have demonstrated the Cu2+ activated self-cleavage can work in our new design. So the second question emerged: can this structure lock 8-17 when only Pb2+ is present?

[[Image:]]

We compared the results of adding only Pb2+ with adding Pb2+ and Cu2+ into the system, and test how many reporter left after reaction. The system with only Pb2+ is shown in the left column, and with both ions in the right column in Figure X. A band is the original design, B band is the reporter. We can see B in left column are much whiter than right. This demonstrated the tightness of our design.

[[Image:]]

As for the system, we want to know when the device can detect the concentration change, so we collected the date for this figure. From figure X, we can also see with only Pb2+, the reporter concentration remains the same. But with Pb2+ and Cu2+, the concentration dropped rapidly in the first two minutes. Because there is only one data in the first three minutes, we set to measure the precise concentration change. We conducted further experiment to gain more accurate results in the first three minutes.

[[Image:]]

Since we’ve answered all the questions about whether our design will work, we set out to characterize more of its properties under different circumstances.

[[Image:]]

Next, we characterized the self-cleavage in the same period with different temperature. As we predicted, the self-cleavage speed increased with growing temperature. But the difference is not so significant, so we assume the self-cleavage is not very sensitive to temperature. Therefore, our design can work across a wide range under room temperature.

Next, in Figure X, is the logic gate concentration change under different Cu2+ concentration. This shows even when we decrease the Cu2+ concentration, our design still works quite well.

We are also interested in the Pb2+ concentration’s influence on reporter cleavage. In Figure X, reporter change under two concentrations are investigated. When Pb2+ is 1μM, reporter concentration dropped rapidly in the first two minutes and turned slowly later. When Pb2+ is 10nM, the concentration slowly decreased. Their main difference is the first two minutes of catalysis.

Module 2

First, we set to verify the self-cleavage of the design. In Figure Xa, the left column is , the right column is . The gel results demonstrated that Module can undergo self-cleavage. Next, let’s take a look at the tightness of the logic gate. In Figure X, the left column is , the right one is . The lowest bands in the column represents the concentration of the reporter. We are disappointed to see that the reporter in both group has been cleaved. This showed our design can’t lock the activity of 8-17 when there is only Pb2+ in the solution. The result is the same with 2-2.
