Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a zinc-containing metalloprotein that shows very great significance in clinical diagnosis, which can catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphorylated species. ALP has the potential to serve as a valuable biomarker for detecting liver dysfunction and bone diseases. On the other hand, ALP is an efficient biocatalyst to amplify detection signals in the enzyme-linked assay. It has always been a major research focus to develop novel biosensors that can detect ALP activity with high selectivity and sensitivity. There have been numerous reports on the development of biosensors to determine ALP activity using a phosphorylated DNA probe. Among them, various beneficial strategies, such as λ exonuclease-mediated cleavage reaction, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-triggered DNA polymerization, and Klenow fragment polymerase-catalyzed elongation, are employed to generate amplified and more intuitive signal. This review discusses and summarizes the development and advances of biosensors for ALP activity detection that use a well-designed phosphorylated DNA probe, aiming to provide some guidelines for the design of more sophisticated sensing strategies that exhibit improved sensitivity, selectivity, and adaptability in detecting ALP activity.
