摘要:
Methods are provided for the production of nucleic acid ligands against target molecules using a procedure known as Transcription-free Systematic Evolution of Ligands by EXponential enrichment (Transcription-free SELEX). The transcription-free SELEX method assembles nucleic acid ligands from fragments of synthetic nucleic acids by annealing those fragments to a complementary template, and then ligating the fragments together.
