tMG RNA aptamer
Timeline
Hwang B et al. libraries containing extra random nucleotides extended to the 3′ end of previously selected RNA sequences[2]
Description
In 2003, Hwang B and Han K had used the methodology which is in vitro transcription of synthetic DNA templates, radiolabeled, and isolated as described to select RNA aptamers against mAb198 . The aptamers, tMG RNA , binds with high affinity to specifically recognize mAb198[1].SELEX
In 2003, Hwang B and Han K selected RNA aptamer by the methodology that full-length RNA aptamer with 2P-deoxy-2P-£uoropyrimidines (Ambion) previously selected against mAb198 or its truncated form (fMG RNA or tMG RNA, respectively) was synthesized by in vitro transcription of synthetic DNA templates, radiolabeled, and isolated[1].
