An RNA aptamer that induces transcription.
We identified an RNA aptamer that induces TetR-controlled gene expression in Escherichia coli when expressed in the cell. The aptamer was found by a combined approach of in vitro selection for TetR binding and in vivo screening for TetR induction. The smallest active aptamer folds into a stem-loop with an internal loop interrupting the stem. Mutational analysis in vivo and in-line probing in vi...
متن کاملHigh-resolution molecular discrimination by RNA.
Species of RNA that bind with high affinity and specificity to the bronchodilator theophylline were identified by selection from an oligonucleotide library. One RNA molecule binds to theophylline with a dissociation constant Kd of 0.1 microM. This binding affinity is 10,000-fold greater than the RNA molecule's affinity for caffeine, which differs from theophylline only by a methyl group at nitr...
متن کاملEvolution of an inhibitory RNA aptamer against T7 RNA polymerase
Aptamers are promising gene components that can be used for the construction of synthetic gene circuits. In this study, we isolated an RNA aptamer that specifically inhibits transcription of T7 RNA polymerase (RNAP). The 38-nucleotide aptamer, which was a shortened variant of an initial SELEX isolate, showed moderate inhibitory activity. By stepwise doped-SELEX, we isolated evolved variants wit...
متن کاملRNA aptamer evaluation using comparative molecular interaction profile analysis system.
In this paper, we introduce a system named Comparative Molecular Interaction Profile Analysis system (CoMIPA) that utilizes virtual docking study for comprehensive analysis of molecular interactions. Research of RNA aptamer is very useful to creation of functional molecules, because RNA aptamer is excellent in binding selectivity and the stability of structure. By using 3-bases RNA fragment, th...
متن کاملdevelopment of a single stranded dna aptamer as a molecular probe for lncap cells using cell-selex
background: nowadays, highly specific aptamers generated by cell selex technology (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment) are being applied for early detection of cancer cells. prostate specific membrane antigen (psma), over expressed in prostate cancer, is a highly specific marker and therefore can be used for diagnosis of the prostate cancer cells. the aim of the present s...
