The present invention relates to the detection of a target nucleic acid sequence by a PTOCE (PTO Cleavage and Extension) assay. The present invention detects a target nucleic acid sequence in which the PTO (Probing and Tagging Oligonucleotide) hybridized with the target nucleic acid sequence is cleaved to release a fragment and the fragment is hybridized with the CTO (Capturing and Templating Oligonucleotide) to form an extended duplex, followed by detecting the presence of the extended duplex. The extended duplex provides signals (generation, increase, extinguishment or decrease of signals) from labels indicating the presence of the extended duplex and has adjustable T.sub.m value, which are well adoptable for detection of the presence of the target nucleic acid sequence.

Disclosed are compositions, systems, kits, and methods for detecting an analyte or target molecule in a sample by regulated in vitro transcription. The compositions, systems, kits, and methods typically comprise and/or utilize one or more components selected from: (a) an RNA polymerase; (b) an allosteric transcription factor (ATT), wherein the ATT binds an analyte or target molecule as a ligand; (c) an engineered transcription template; and/or any combination thereof. The engineered transcription template typically comprises a promoter sequence for the RNA polymerase and an operator sequence for the ATT. The promoter sequence and operator sequence are operably linked to a sequence encoding an RNA, wherein the ATT modulates transcription of the encoded RNA when the ATT binds the analyte or target molecule as a ligand, wherein the transcribed RNA generates a detectable signal in conjunction with a reporter molecule.
