Y1_aptamer_with_fluorophore

Y1 ssDNA aptamer sequence designed to specifically bind to histamine. The sequence contains a fluorophore molecule at its 5' end (5' Cy5™). y1_reverse_compliment_strand is complementary to this sequence, which contains a quencher molecule (3'Iowa Black® RQ) on its 3' end, which absorbs the light emitted by fluorophore until the aptamer binds histamine.



Usage and Biology

Aptamers are generally artificial ssDNA, RNA, or peptide oligomers which bind to specific target molecules. All ssDNA aptamers we utilise are proven to be able to bind specifically to histamine, thus preventing the binding of the molecule to a histamine receptor.
