Nucleic acid-based logic gates have shown great potential in biotechnology, medicine as well as diagnostics. Herein, we have constructed pH-responsive logic devices by utilizing HIV-1 TAR hairpins in combination with a thiazole peptide that exhibits turn-on fluorescence upon interacting with TAR RNA or DNA. Based on this, INHIBIT-AND and YES-INHIBIT-AND logic gates were constructed in parallel. The pH alteration leads to conformational changes of the hairpin structure, enabling the construction of a multi-reset reusable logic system which could be developed for in vitro sensing of the HIV-1 viral RNA.
