RNA Aptamer Evolution: Two Decades of SELEction
Aptamers are small non-coding RNAs capable of recognizing, with high specificity and affinity, a wide variety of molecules in a manner that resembles antibodies. This class of nucleic acids is the resulting product of applying a well-established screening method known as SELEX. First developed in 1990, the SELEX process has become a powerful tool to select structured oligonucleotides for the re...
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 کاملEvolution over two decades of the tropical
18 The interannual variability of cloud properties in a tropical subsidence area (South 19 Atlantic Ocean) is examined using 23 years of ISCCP cloud fractions and optical depths, 20 complemented with ISCCP/Meteosat visible reflectance and a four-years comparison with 21 CALIPSO-GOCCP products. The mean seasonal cloud properties are examined in the area, as 22 their interannual evolution. Circul...
متن کاملHIV testing technologies after two decades of evolution.
Over the past two decades, HIV diagnostics have been essential in detecting and monitoring infection, and continue to play a major role in saving lives throughout the world. As technology evolved, screening, confirmatory, and HIV monitoring assays have been improved and offer better alternatives to address blood screening, surveillance, diagnosis, and patient management. Molecular methods are c...
متن کاملAn RNA-aptamer-based two-color CRISPR labeling system
The spatial organization and dynamics of chromatin play important roles in essential biological functions. However, direct visualization of endogenous genomic loci in living cells has proven to be laborious until the recent development of CRISPR-Cas9-based chromatin labeling methods. These methods rely on the recognition of specific DNA sequences by CRISPR single-guide RNAs (sgRNAs) and fluores...
