Better estimation of protein-DNA interaction parameters improve prediction of functional sites

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2008
Background Characterizing transcription factor binding motifs is a common bioinformatics task. For transcription factors with variable binding sites, we need to get many suboptimal binding sites in our training dataset to get accurate estimates of free ...

Using Aptamers for Cancer Biomarker Discovery

open access: yesJournal of Nucleic Acids, 2013
Aptamers are single-stranded synthetic DNA- or RNA-based oligonucleotides that fold into various shapes to bind to a specific target, which includes proteins, metals, and molecules.

Aptamers and SELEX in Chemistry & Biology

open access: yesChemistry & Biology, 2014
Nucleic acid aptamers, or simply aptamers, are oligonucleotides that bind specific ligands that vary from small molecules to proteins. An aptamer for a specific ligand is routinely identified through the process of systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment, although some aptamers are found in nature as ligand-binding sites of special ...

Simple Methods and Rational Design for Enhancing Aptamer Sensitivity and Specificity

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2018
Aptamers are structured nucleic acid molecules that can bind to their targets with high affinity and specificity. However, conventional SELEX (Systematic Evolution of Ligands by EXponential enrichment) methods may not necessarily produce aptamers of ...

Plate cell – SELEX v1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Aptamers are short single-stranded oligonucleotide (DNA or RNA) molecules with the ability to bind to other molecules with high affinity and specificity. Nowadays, aptamers are used as biosensing molecules with broader applications, such as ribozymes (RNA enzyme molecules with catalytic activities); riboswitches (modulating translational activities ...

NMR monitoring of the SELEX process to confirm enrichment of structured RNA

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
RNA aptamers are RNA molecules that bind to a target molecule with high affinity and specificity using uniquely-folded tertiary structures. RNA aptamers are selected from an RNA pool typically comprising up to 1015 different sequences generated by ...

DeepAptamer: Advancing high-affinity aptamer discovery with a hybrid deep learning model

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids
Oligonucleotide aptamers are typically identified through a rigorous and time-consuming process known as systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX), which requires 20 to 30 iterative rounds to eliminate non/weak binding sequences ...
