Description

In a work published in 2023, Li Jiang and Xin Xie et al. isolated an RNA aptamer, named Clivias, which binds NBSI and transform its optical properties. Later, in a work published in 2024 by Kaiyi Huang and others, the structure of the Clivias-NBSI derivates complex is analyzed by crystallization, diffraction data collection[1,2].

SELEX

SELEX was performed with a library and selected RNAs for their ability to bind NBSI derivates. The selection process went through 8 rounds. After SELEX, researchers selected a number of sequences, including Clivias, to characterize their affinity for the dye and its spectral properties[1].
Detailed information are accessible on SELEX page.

Ligand information

SELEX ligand

To determine the dissociation constants of Clivia with different fluorophores, 20 nM Clivia RNA was incubated with increasing concentrations of the fluorophore (0–5 μM) and the fluorescence intensity at the corresponding spectra was measured using a Neo2 multi-mode microplate reader(BioTek). The resulting data were fitted to a curve based on the Hill equation: Y = Bmax · Xh/(Kd + Xh), where Bmax represents the maximum specific binding parameter in the same units as Y, h represents the Hill slope and Kd represents the concentration needed to achieve a half-maximum binding at equilibrium[1].

Structure ligand

NBSI is a typical chromophore structure consisting of an electron donor and an electron acceptor linked by π conjugation. NBSI exhibit a large Stokes shift of 80 nm when it was constrained in glycerol.-----From 2023_nature methods_Large Stokes shift fluorescent RNAs for dual-emission fluorescence and bioluminescence imaging in live cells.
