The present disclosure, at least in part, relates to a miRNA based logic gate that comprises an engineered RNA carrier that comprises an nuclear export signal, a target site for a first miRNA and a pre-miRNA sequence for a second miRNA. Also provided by the disclosure are recombinant viruses (e.g., recombinant adeno-associated viruses (rAAV)) for delivery of the miRNA based logic gates.

It has been found that by mixing a single-stranded probe DNA whose cleavage can be detected in a reaction system containing a CRISPR-Cas3 system and a sample from which to detect a target DNA, it is possible to detect the target DNA in the sample by using, as indication, a signal generated by the cleavage of the single-stranded probe DNA.
