Abstract
In proximity-driven sensing, interactions between a probe and an analyte produce a detectable signal by causing a change in distance of two probe components or signaling moieties. By interfacing such systems with DNA-based nanostructures, platforms that are highly sensitive, specific, and programmable can be designed. In this Perspective, we delineate the advantages of using DNA building blocks in proximity-driven nanosensors and provide an overview of recent progress in the field, from sensors that rapidly detect pesticides in food to probes that identify rare cancer cells in blood. We also discuss current challenges and identify key areas that need further development.
