Abstract The shape-controlled synthesis of gold nanocrystals via shape induction of hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride, potassium bromide, and potassium iodide and enantioselective direction of L-cysteine is reported. The resulting gold nanocrystals (STO-Au) offer spiny trisoctahedron nanostructures with good monodispersity and enhanced exposed high-index facets and high catalytic activity. Construction of the electrochemical sensing platform for MON89788 gene involves the modification of STO-Au, thionine (Thi), and labeled bipedal DNA probe 1 or 2 (P1 or P2) for target DNA– induced recycling amplification. In the detection, two surface DNA probes were immobilized on gold electrode via the AuS bond. Then, hairpin DNA 1 (H1), Thi-STO-Au-P1, and Thi-STO-Au-P2 self-assemble into two-dimensional DNA nanopores (DNPs) on the electrode surface. Target DNA hybridizes with hairpin DNA 2 (H2) to open hairpin structure of H2. The opened H2 binds with H1 in the DNPs to release Thi-STO-Au-P1, Thi-STO-Au-P2, and target DNA by toehold-mediated strand-displacement. The utilization of target DNA–induced recycling allows one target DNA to release 2N STO-Au-labeled DNA strands, promoting significant signal amplification. The detection signal is further enhanced by the catalyzed redox reaction of Thi with STO-Au. The differential pulse voltammetric signal, best measured at − 0.18 V vs. Ag/AgCl, decreases linearly with increasing concentration of MON89788 in the range 0.02–8 × 104 fM, and the detection limit is 0.0048 fM (S/N = 3). The proposed method was successfully applied for electrochemical detection of MON89788 gene fragments in the PCR products from genetically modified soybean.
