Angiopoietin-2 aptamer
Description
Sullenger, B. A. et al. reported aptamers with affinity for angiopoietin-2 in their article published in 2003. The 11-1.41 aptamer was named by Sullenger, B. A. et al. in the article[1].
SELEX
In their work published in 2003, Sullenger, B. A. et al. used SELEX to isolate RNA aptamer sequences with affinity for angiopoietin-2 from a nucleic acid library containing about 1014 80-nucleotides-long sequences after 11 rounds of selection process. RNAs bound to Ang2 were isolated via vacuum filtration through a 0.45 μm nitrocellulose membrane[1].
Detailed information are accessible on SELEX page.
Structure
The 2D structure of the figure is based on the article by online secondary structure prediction tool to draw. The figure shows the secondary structure prediction of the original aptamer sequence. This aptamer consists of a stem loop containing 3 bulges and 2 G-U non-canonical base pairings[1].

Ligand information
SELEX ligand
Angiopoietin-2 binds to TEK/TIE2, competing for the ANGPT1 binding site, and modulating ANGPT1 signaling. Can induce tyrosine phosphorylation of TEK/TIE2 in the absence of ANGPT1. In the absence of angiogenic inducers, such as VEGF, ANGPT2-mediated loosening of cell-matrix contacts may induce endothelial cell apoptosis with consequent vascular regression. In concert with VEGF, it may facilitate endothelial cell migration and proliferation, thus serving as a permissive angiogenic signal.-----From Uniprot
