Technological advances in rare DNA mutations detection have revolutionized the diagnosis and monitoring of tumors, but they are still limited by the lack of supersensitive and high-coverage procedures for identifying low-abundance mutations. Here, we describe a single-tube, multiplex PCR-based system, A-Star, that involves a hyperthermophilic Argonaute from Pyrococcus furiosus (PfAgo) for highly efficient detection of rare mutations beneficial from its compatibility with DNA polymerase. This novel technique uses a specific guide design strategy to allow PfAgo selective cleavage with single-nucleotide resolution at 94°C, thus mostly eliminating wild-type DNA in the denaturation step and efficiently amplifying rare mutant DNA during the PCR process. The integrated single-tube system achieved great efficiency for enriching rare mutations compared with a divided system separating the cleavage and amplification. Thus, A-Star enables easy detection and quantification of 0.01% rare mutations with ≥5500-fold increase in efficiency. The feasibility of A-Star was also demonstrated for detecting oncogenic mutations in solid tumor tissues and blood samples. Remarkably, A-Star achieved simultaneous detection of multiple oncogenes through a simple single-tube reaction by orthogonal guide-directed specific cleavage. This study demonstrates a supersensitive and rapid nucleic acid detection system with promising potential for both research and therapeutic applications.
