Tetracycline aptamer-controlled regulation of pre-mRNA splicing in yeast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Splicing of pre-mRNA is a critical step in mRNA maturation and disturbances cause several genetic disorders. We apply the synthetic tetracycline (tc)-binding riboswitch to establish a gene expression system for conditional tc-dependent control of pre ...

Aptamer Sensors [PDF]

open access: yesBiosensors, 2017
In the last years, great progress has been accomplished in the development of aptamer sensors with different transducers. In order to improve the sensitivity of these biosensors, several methodologies have been employed. In this Special Issue, the state of art and the future trends in the field of aptamer sensors have been explored.

Influence of ground-state structure and Mg2+ binding on folding kinetics of the guanine-sensing riboswitch aptamer domain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Riboswitch RNAs fold into complex tertiary structures upon binding to their cognate ligand. Ligand recognition is accomplished by key residues in the binding pocket.

Aptamers and Their Biological Applications [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2012
Recently, aptamers have attracted the attention of many scientists, because they not only have all of the advantages of antibodies, but also have unique merits, such as thermal stability, low cost, and unlimited applications. In this review, we present the reasons why aptamers are known as alternatives to antibodies.

Aptamer-Integrated Scaffolds for Biologically Functional DNA Origami Structures

open access: yes, 2021
The manufacture of DNA origami nanostructures with highly ordered functional motifs is of great significance for biomedical applications. Here, we present a robust strategy to produce customized scaffolds with integrated aptamer sequences, which enables ...

An Electrochemical Aptasensor for the Detection of HER2 as a Breast Cancer Biomarker Based on Gold Nanoparticles-Aptamer Bioconjugates

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Chemistry, 2021
Inaccurate diagnoses contributes to the high mortality rate of breast cancer. Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is overexpressed in breast cancer tumors at around 20–30%.

Genetic dissection of human ABCE1 in yeast reveals separable requirements for ribosome recycling and suppression of aberrant reinitiation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Human ABCE1 cannot functionally replace its yeast ortholog. Yeast–human chimera analysis identified NBD1 as a major interspecies barrier. Genetic screening yielded hABCE1 revertants that rescue yeast viability but fail to suppress aberrant translation reinitiation in the 3′ UTR.

Incorporation of a metal-mediated base pair into an ATP aptamer – using silver(I) ions to modulate aptamer function

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2020
For the first time, a metal-mediated base pair has been used to modulate the affinity of an aptamer towards its target. In particular, two artificial imidazole 2’-deoxyribonucleosides (Im) were incorporated into various positions of an established ATP ...

Stabilizing Enzymes in Plasmonic Silk Film for Synergistic Therapy of In Situ SERS Identified Bacteria

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2022
Increasing antibiotic resistance becomes a serious threat to public health. Photothermal therapy (PTT) and antibacterial enzyme‐based therapy are promising nonresistant strategies for efficiently killing drug‐resistant bacteria.
