In vitro selection and characterization of single stranded DNA aptamers for luteolin: A possible recognition tool

In Silico discovery of aptamers with an enhanced library design strategy

“…Due to the high selectivity and high affinity of the aptamer for the target molecule, it is also termed a “chemical antibody”. A variety of research studies have demonstrated that aptamers are capable of interacting with a variety of targets, including metal ions, amino acids, antibiotics, coenzymes, polypeptides, and fluorophore molecules [1] , [2] , [3] , [4] . Recognition and interaction with different target molecules allow aptamers be applied as biosensors, target recognition and target delivery.…”
