An electrolyte-gated transistor for the monitoring of a CRISPR/Cas activity by Pierre Guermonprez, Le Tu Anh, Louis Renaud, Pierre Nioche, Eric Krejci, Aurélie Alleaume-Butaux, Nicolas Battaglini, Vu Thi Thu, Sébastien Sanaur, Benoît Piro

“…In these devices, fabricated on flexible plastic substrates, the active material (reduced graphene oxide, rGO) is deposited by printing and then functionalized with Au nanoparticles decorated with polyU RNA reporter strands. In this system, the CRISPR/Cas13a complex acts as a catalyst: in the presence of a specific RNA target sequence, the enzymatic function is activated and the polyU RNA reporter strands are cleaved from the Au nanoparticles, inducing a loss of negative charges on the rGO layer. …”
