1. Introduction
Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection is very important in biological and clinical studies because SNP is associated with phenotyping variations, gene functions, anthropometric characteristics, and diseases (Boffa et al., 2008; Marmiroli et al., 2011; Rutters et al., 2011; Simon-Sanchez et al., 2008). Many methodologies have been developed for SNP detection. Representative strategies include allele-specific probe hybridization (Fan et al., 2003; Yang et al., 2006), specific enzymatic cleavage (Chen et al., 2004; Lyamichev et al., 1999), primer extension (Litos et al., 2007; Steemers et al., 2006) as well as ligation (Xu et al., 2008; Wang et al., 2011). There are many methodological approaches to measure the signal output including, to name a few, fluorescence (Duan et al., 2009; Xiao et al., 2009), mass spectroscopy (Sauer et al., 2006; Tost and Gut, 2002),
electrochemistry (Hu et al., 2011; Liu and Lin, 2007), and gel electrophoresis (Cheng et al., 2011; Li et al., 2011). Until now, there has been no consensus for the best SNP detection method in terms of sample throughput, simplicity, robustness, and cost. There is a continuous need for new SNP detection methods to meet specific needs and situations.
Fluorescence anisotropy (r), which is sensitive to changes in the motion of the fluorophore, has substantial advantages in homogeneous and high throughput assays. The variation in fluorescence intensity due to photobleaching and other effects does not significantly affect quantitative fluorescence anisotropy measurements (Fang et al., 2001). Furthermore, fluorescence anisotropy measurement based on recognition reactions, such as aptamer-target reaction, antibody–antigen reaction, and DNA hybridization, do not require separation of reagent blank from the test media. Therefore, fluorescence anisotropy can be used for homogeneous analysis and has the potential for automated highthroughput assays (Jameson and Ross, 2010; Ruta et al., 2009).

abstract
We developed a highly differentiating, homogeneous gold nanoparticle (AuNP) enhanced fluorescence anisotropic method for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection at nanomolar level using toehold-mediated strand-displacement reaction. The template strand, containing a toehold domain with an allele-specific site, was immobilized on the surface of AuNPs, and the solution fluorescence anisotropy was markedly enhanced when the fluorescein-labeled blocking DNA was attached to the AuNP via hybridization. Strand-displacement by the target ssDNA strand resulted in detachment of fluorescein-labeled DNA from AuNPs, and thus decreased fluorescence anisotropy. The drastic kinetic difference in strand-displacement from toehold design was used to distinguish between the perfectly matched and the single-base mismatched strands. Free energy changes were calculated to elucidate the dependence of the differentiation ability on the mutation site in the toehold region. A solid negative signal change can be obtained for single-base mismatched strand in the dynamic range of the calibration curve, and a more than 10-fold signal difference can still be observed in a mixed solution containing 100 times the single-base mismatched strand, indicating the good specificity of the method. This proposed method can be performed with a standard spectrofluorimeter in a homogeneous and cost-effective manner, and has the potential to be extended to the application of fluorescence anisotropy method of SNP detection.
