Selection of aptamers for AMACR detection from DNA libraries with different primers

Minimal primer and primer-free SELEX protocols for selection of aptamers from random DNA libraries.

Standard systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) protocols require libraries that contain two primers, one on each side of a central random domain, which allow amplification of target-bound sequences via PCR or RT-PCR. However, these primer sequences cause nonspecific binding by their nature (generally adding about 20 nt on each end of the random sequence of about 30-4...

Nanobioprobe mediated DNA aptamers for explosive detection.

Specific nucleic acid aptamers using the microtiter plate based modified SELEX method against explosive trinitrotoluene are reported. Efficient partitioning of dsDNA was carried out using streptavidin labeled gold nanoprobes for the selection of specific aptamers. The selected binders having an affinity of ~10(-7) M were used in the newly developed electrochemical aptasensor, exhibiting a detec...

synthesis and dna interaction studies of new cobalt (ii) complexes containing different dinitrogen aaromatic ligands with calf thymus dna using different spectroscopy methods

در این مطالعه بر هم کنش این چهار کمپلکس با dna تیموس گوساله توسط روش های اسپکتروفتومتری، فلوریمتری، دو رنگ نمائی دورانی، و ویسکوزیمتری بررسی شدند تا اثر استخلاف های متیل بر روی لیگاندهای فنانترولین بررسی گردد.

Selection of DNA aptamers with two modified bases.

The nucleobases comprising DNA and RNA aptamers provide considerably less chemical diversity than protein-based ligands, limiting their versatility. The introduction of novel functional groups at just one of the four bases in modified aptamers has recently led to dramatic improvement in the success rate of identifying nucleic acid ligands to protein targets. Here we explore the benefits of addi...
