Abstract
As a promising biomarker, the level of methylated DNA usually changes in the early stage of the cancer. Ultrasensitive detection of the changes of methylated DNA offers possibility for early diagnosis of cancer. In this work, a tannic acid-accelerated Fenton chemical reaction amplification was firstly proposed for the construction of ultrasensitive fluorescent assay. Tannic acid was used as reductant to accelerate Fenton reaction procedure through the conversion of Fe3+/Fe2+, generating hydroxyl radicals (·OH) continuously. The produced ·OH oxidized massive non-fluorescent terephthalic acid (TA) to fluorescent-emitting hydroxy terephthalic acid (TAOH). In this way, the fluorescent signal could be greatly enhanced and the sensitivity was improved almost 116 times. The proposed signal amplification strategy was further applied to detect of DNA methylation with the assistance of liposome encapsulated with tannic-Fe3+ complexes. The methylated DNA was firstly captured through the hybridization with its complementary DNA that were pre-modified in the 96-well plate via the combination between streptavidin (SA) and biotin. Then, 5 mC antibody on the surface of liposomes specially recognized and combined with methylation sites, which brought large amount of tannic-Fe3+ complexes to participate Fenton reaction. The fluorescence of generated TAOH was depended on the concentration of methylated DNA. The assay showed good analytical performance for methylated DNA with a limit of detection (LOD) of 1.4 fM. It's believed that tannic acid-accelerated Fenton chemical reaction amplification strategy provides a promising platform for ultrasensitive fluorescent detection of low abundant biomarkers.

Abstract
In this work, a novel "turn-on" mode Au nanocubes (AuNCs) enhanced surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) biosensing platform coupled with heated Au electrode (HAuE) and strand displacement amplification (SDA) strategy was proposed for highly sensitive detection of DNA adenine methylation (Dam) Methyltransferase (MTase) activity. The Dam MTase and DpnI enzyme activities were significantly increased by elevating the HAuE surface temperature, resulting in the rapid production of template DNA for later SDA. During the SDA process, the released single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) could be amplified exponentially, and its concentration was positively related to the Dam MTase activity. The plasmonic AuNCs in SERS tags could provide significant SERS enhancement due to their "lightning rod" effect resulting from the sharp feature of the edges and corners of AuNCs. Because of these factors, the proposed biosensors exhibited high sensitivity in detecting the Dam MTase activity. The limit of detection was estimated to be 8.65 × 10-5 U mL-1, which was lower than that in most of the sensors for detection of Dam MTase activity in the literature. This SERS biosensor could also be used to screen inhibitors of Dam MTase and had the potential for detecting Dam MTase activity in real biological samples.
