Abstract

The invention discloses the application of nucleic acid aptamers in identifying and being bound with integrin alpha4. According to the application of the nucleic acid aptamers in identifying and being bound with the integrin alpha4, it is initiatively found that the nucleic acid aptamers Sgc-4e can identify and be bound with the integrin alpha4 in a specific mode, and the specific binding effect of the nucleic acid aptamers Sgc-4e and the integrin alpha4 is utilized for establishing a method for detecting the integrin alpha4. Experimental results show that the nucleic acid aptamers Sgc-4e have the advtanges of being high in affinity, great in specificity, free of immunogenicity and toxicity and the like, and by means of the method for detecting the integrin alpha4 which is established based on the nucleic acid aptamers Sgc-4e, a new strategy for treating multiple sclerosis can be provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biotechnology and clinical medicine, and specifically relates to the application of nucleic acid aptamers in recognizing and binding integrin α4. Background technique [0002] Nucleic acid aptamer (aptamer) is a kind of single-stranded DNA, RNA, peptide nucleic acid or chemically modified nucleic acid sequence that can specifically interact with the target substance, usually consisting of 15-80 nucleotides. Nucleic acid aptamers can form specific three-dimensional structures and bind to target molecules with high affinity, such as hairpins, pseudoknots, G-quadruplexes and other structures. Highly specific binding is through van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonds, electrostatic interactions, and hydrophobic interactions. achieved by intermolecular interactions. It has the characteristics of high affinity, good specificity, non-immunogenicity, easy synthesis, transformation and modification, good biochemical...
