The detection of DNA methylation at cytosine/guanine dinucleotide (CpG) islands in promoter regions of tumor suppressor genes has great potential for early cancer screening, diagnosis, and prognosis monitoring. Nevertheless, achieving accurate, sensitive, cost-effective, and quantitative detection of target methylated DNA remains challenging. Herein, we propose a novel piezoelectric sensor (series piezoelectric quartz crystal (SPQC)) based on transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) for detecting DNA methylation of Ras association domain family 1 isoform A (RASSF1A) tumor suppressor genes (R-5mC). The sensor employs TALEs-Ni magnetic beads to specifically recognize and separate the R-5mC, thereby improving the detection selectivity. The TALEs-Ni magnetic beads-R-5mC complex is sheared by a nucleic acid enzyme (DNAzyme) to release the single-stranded DNA (ST). ST initiates a catalyzed hairpin assembly (CHA) reaction on the surface of the electrode, which in turn triggers the hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and silver staining for enhanced detection sensitivity. The strategy exhibits a linear response in the detection of R-5mC in the range of 1 fM to 1 nM with a detection limit of 0.79 fM. R-5mC as low as 0.01% can be detected, even in the presence of large numbers of unmethylated DNA. The detection of R-5mC in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) derived from clinical plasma specimens of lung cancer patients yielded satisfactory results.
