Novel Cell type-specific aptamer-siRNA delivery system for HIV-1 therapy [PDF]
The successful use of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) for therapeutic purposes requires safe and efficient delivery to specific cells and tissues. Here we demonstrate cell type-specific delivery of anti-HIV siRNAs via fusion to an anti-gp120 aptamer. The

Exploring the binding of d(GGGT)4 to the HIV-1 integrase: An approach to investigate G-quadruplex aptamer/target protein interactions. [PDF]
The aptamer d(GGGT)4 (T30923 or T30695) forms a 5'-5' dimer of two stacked parallel G-quadruplexes, each characterized by three G-tetrads and three single-thymidine reversed-chain loops.

Solution‐Based Biophysical Methods for Guiding Design of Aptamers into Electrochemical Biosensors
It is found that aptamer binding and folding thermodynamics measured via isothermal titration calorimetry and nano differential scanning calorimetry directly correlate with electrochemical aptamer‐based biosensor response. We show that these techniques report on the magnitude of conformational change and could be used as guides to help engineer ...
