As a highly conserved damage repair protein, Fpg can specifically recognize and digest 8-oxoG from a damaged DNA backbone. Meanwhile, DNAzyme, a single-stranded DNA with enzymatic activity, can cleave RNA in the presence of cofactors. In this study, we established a highly sensitive method for Fpg assay using a DNAzyme-mediated signal cascade amplification strategy. Based on the Fpg-dependent fluorescence response of the "turn-on" manner, we could reliably determine Fpg activity down to 0.14 U mL-1 with a linear response from 0.10 to 40 U mL-1 under optimal conditions. In addition, this strate...
