Effect of 3'-end capping of aptamer with various 2',4'-bridged nucleotides: Enzymatic post-modification toward a practical use of polyclonal aptamers.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The capping of the 3'-ends of thrombin binding aptamers (TBAs) with bridged nucleotides increased the nuclease resistances and the stabilities in human serum. The binding abilities of the aptamers were not affected by the capping. The capping could be simply executed via a one step enzymatic process using 2',4'-bridged nucleoside 5'-triphosphate and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase.

The Use of Aptamer in Detection of Pathogenic Bacteria-
Detection, identification and measurement of microbial pathogens is critical for protecting public health. Although microbial culture-based tests and molecular techniques are currently the most commonly used, these techniques are time-consuming and require complex tools and experienced individuals. Consequently, it is costly to analyze these techniques. The emergence of the aptamer led to the e...
متن کاملEfficient Reverse Transcription Using Locked Nucleic Acid Nucleotides towards the Evolution of Nuclease Resistant RNA Aptamers
BACKGROUND Modified nucleotides are increasingly being utilized in the de novo selection of aptamers for enhancing their drug-like character and abolishing the need for time consuming trial-and-error based post-selection modifications. Locked nucleic acid (LNA) is one of the most prominent and successful nucleic acid analogues because of its remarkable properties, and widely explored as buildin...

In order to systematically analyze the effects of nucleoside modification of sugar moieties in DNA polymerase reactions, we synthesized 16 modified templates containing 2',4'-bridged nucleotides and three types of 2',4'-bridged nucleoside-5'-triphospates with different bridging structures. Among the five types of thermostable DNA polymerases used, Taq, Phusion HF, Vent(exo-), KOD Dash and KOD(e...
متن کاملDetecting and Discriminating Shigella sonnei Using an Aptamer-Based Fluorescent Biosensor Platform.
In this paper, a Whole-Bacteria SELEX (WB-SELEX) strategy was adopted to isolate specific aptamers against Shigella sonnei. Real-time PCR amplification and post-SELEX experiment revealed that the selected aptmers possessed a high binding affinity and specificity for S. sonnei. Of the 21 aptamers tested, the C(t) values of the SS-3 and SS-4 aptamers (Ct = 13.89 and Ct = 12.23, respectively) had ...
متن کاملCommentary on Aptamers for Virus Research
Aptamers are oligonucleotide ligands that form unique secondary and tertiary structures, such as stem loops, kinks, bulges, and pseudoknots. Each aptamer exhibits a unique interface, through its structure, that specifically recognizes the target molecule. In fact, the target recognition of aptamers is highly specific, and it has been reported that an aptamer is able to discriminate between clos...
