Final Results

Overview We demonstrated that each of the modules of our platform (extraction, amplification and detection of pathogenic RNA) is functional, although we did not yet fully integrate all the modules into a final product. What worked: Demonstrated functionality of Lbu and Lwa Cas13a Modeled the detection limit of our circuit and confirmed it experimentally (~10 nM RNA) Detected pathogen RNA sequence from in vitro and in vivo sources Differentiated viral sequences from bacterial sequences Used RNase Alert and Spinach aptamer read-out circuits Used gold nanoparticles to detect general RNase activity Detected RNA in bulk, on paper, and from lyophilized Cas13a Constructed a functional fluorescence detector with high sensitivity and low production cost Amplified target with RPA and transcription on paper Improved the biobrick BBa_K1319008 by adding a 6x His-tag and provided Cas13a Lwa as three different composite biobricks Characterized the GFP degradation tags and sent them as a part collection Characterized the GFP degradation tags and sent them as a part collection
