A CRISPR-Cas12a-derived biosensing platform for the highly sensitive detection of diverse small molecules
Bacterial allosteric transcription factors can sense and respond to a variety of small molecules. Here the authors present CaT-SMelor which uses Cas12a and allosteric transcription factors to detect small molecules in the nanomolar range.
