Abstract: Described herein are compositions that may be used to detect viral nucleic acid. For example, these compositions may comprise a DNA-nanostructure, a capture oligonucleotide and a protector oligonucleotide, wherein the components are designed based on a duo-toehold-mediated displacement reaction (duo-TMDR) strategy. In this strategy, a first TMDR can switch off a Foster resonance energy transfer (FRET) process and a second TMDR can release the target viral nucleic acid and amplify the signal. Methods of using such compositions are also provided herein.
