Multiplex assays often rely on expensive sensors incorporating covalently linked fluorescent
dyes. Herein, we developed a self-assembling aptamer-based multiplex assay. This …

Inteins are proteins that excise themselves out of host proteins and ligate the flanking
polypeptides in an auto‐catalytic process called protein splicing. In nature, inteins are either …
