Complement component 5 aptamer
Description
Lee, Y. et al. reported aptamers with affinity for complement component 5 in their article published in 2002. The W2 aptamer was named by Lee, Y. et al. in the article[1].
SELEX
In their work published in 2002, Lee, Y. et al. used SELEX to isolate RNA aptamer sequences with affinity for complement component 5 from a nucleic acid library containing about 5×1014 30-nucleotides-long sequences after 15 rounds of selection process. C5 protein was expressed in E. coli as a fusion with maltose-binding protein.[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. The structure of this aptamer is relatively simple, consisting of only one stem loop with one bulge. The 5' and 3' ends of aptamer each has an overhang[1].

Ligand information
SELEX ligand
Activation of C5 by a C5 convertase initiates the spontaneous assembly of the late complement components, C5-C9, into the membrane attack complex. C5b has a transient binding site for C6. The C5b-C6 complex is the foundation upon which the lytic complex is assembled. Derived from proteolytic degradation of complement C5, C5a anaphylatoxin is a mediator of local inflammatory process. Binding to the receptor C5AR1 induces a variety of responses including intracellular calcium release, contraction of smooth muscle, increased vascular permeability, and histamine release from mast cells and basophilic leukocytes.-----From Uniprot
