Single‐Stranded DNA Aptamers against Pathogens and Toxins: Identification and Biosensing Applications

BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Molecular recognition elements (MREs) can be short sequences of single‐stranded DNA, RNA, small peptides, or antibody fragments. They can bind to user‐defined targets with high affinity and specificity. There has been an increasing interest in the identification and application of nucleic acid molecular recognition elements, commonly known as aptamers,
