Aptamers, and the selection process known as Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment (SELEX) used to generate them, were first described more than twenty years ago. Since then, there have been numerous modifications to the selection procedures. This review discusses the use of modified bases as a means of enhancing serum stability and producing effective therapeutic tools, as well as functionalising these nucleic acids to be used as potential diagnostic agents.
适体及其筛选技术系统进化的配体(SELEX)于二十多年前首次被描述。自那时以来,筛选程序已经进行了多次修改。本文讨论了使用修饰碱基来提高血清稳定性和产生有效治疗工具的方法,以及将这些核酸进行功能化以用作潜在诊断剂的方法。
