Provided herein is a viral RNA detection system, utilizing the RNA-targeting properties of the optimized Cas13d enzyme, CasRx, to detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA, e.g., synthetic SARS-CoV-2 RNA. The system detects novel target sequences conserved within the actively evolving genome, to provide a panel of diagnostic target sites least likely to result in false negatives due to genomic variation. Successful detection of viral RNA through both a fluorescence-based readout assay as well as a rapid paper dipstick lateral flow assay requiring no specialized laboratory equipment was shown. Low viral titers can be detected within minutes following only minutes of sample processing.
