The preparation of cas12a condition for species authentication. (A) gRNA-A and gRNA-B design based on the multiple alignment of trnL loci and the construction of double stranded DNA as temples for gRNA synthesis. (B) The synthesis of gRNA-A and gRNA-B by in vitro transcription with T7 RNA polymerase and the synthesized gRNAs were detected by agarose gel electrophoresis. (C) The schematic illustrates the mechanism of cas12a to form binary and tertiary complex to cleave the reporter single stranded DNA as result of the fluorescence signal. (D) The condition optimization of in vitro digestion of cas12a by varying the concentration ratio of cas12a and gRNA at 1: 1 to produce the fluorescence at 37 °C for an hour. Phyllanthus species were studied including Phyllanthus amarus (PA), Phyllanthus urinaria (PU), Phyllanthus debilis (PD), Phyllanthus virgatus (PV). Initial image of agarose gel electrophoresis is shown in Figure S1.
