SELEX based aptamers with diagnostic and entry inhibitor therapeutic potential for SARS-CoV-2

Sayanti Halder,

Abstract: Frequent mutation and variable immunological protection against vaccination is a common feature for COVID-19 pandemic. Early detection and confinement remain key to controlling further spread of infection. In response, we have developed an aptamer-based system that possesses both diagnostic and therapeutic potential towards the virus. A random aptamer library (~ 1017 molecules) was screened using systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) and aptamer R was identified as a potent binder f… Show more

“…Subsequently, they conducted SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus inhibition assay using these aptamers to identify aptamers with antiviral potential. The antiviral efficiency of the highest binding aptamers R and J (same central sequence as in R but lacking flanked primer regions) showed 95.4% and 82.5% inhibition against SARS-CoV-2, respectively [ 146 ].…”

“…In this situation, a new enriched reservoir of selected oligonucleotides is produced by the PCR transcription of the suitable ssDNA from the SELEX results. 42 This selected oligonucleotide resource is then used in the subsequent round of selection. To select specific aptamers for high-affinity target molecules, 6-20 rounds of the SELEX procedure are often necessary.…”
