The application discloses a kind of
nucleic acid aptamer specifically binding meso-
diaminopimelic acid and application thereof, belong to the field of bioengineering and detection technology.The sequence of the
nucleic acid aptamer is as shown in SEQ ID NO:2, or variant obtained by the addition, deletion or substitution of one or more bases and has the same
binding function, and is obtained by screening by an improved Capture-SELEX method, which introduces progressive counter-screening strategy in screening process, effectively improves the specificity of
aptamer.The preferred aptamer 34S (SEQ ID NO:3) provided by the application is verified by isothermal
titration calorimetry, and has nanomolar level affinity with meso-
diaminopimelic acid (DAP).The aptamer can be used as a core recognition element to construct electrochemical, optical and other types of biosensors, detection kits,
rapid detection systems or equipment, to realize rapid, sensitive and
specific detection of DAP, and has important application value in the field of bacterial identification, infectious
disease identification and the like.
