FnCas12a/crRNA assisted dumbbell-PCR detection of IsomiRs with terminal and inner sequence variants.

Herein, we report a FnCas12a/crRNA assisted Dumbbell-PCR method for the detection of isomiRs with double specificity and magnification. The single nucleotide variant of isomiRs in terminals and/or inner sequence could be discriminated by this strategy. Using this method, let-7a isomiRs in MCF-7 and MCF-7R cell lines were analyzed.
