Aptamer for Betacasomorphin-7
Technology Details: Aptamers specific to betacasomorphin7 (BCM7) have been generated. These aptamers have different structural motif. The dissociation constants of aptamer-BCM7 are in Nano molar range indicating their higher affinity for target. The aptamers can be used as recognition elements for developing methods for detection of BCM7 in urine and blood as well as for ascertaining whether milk is A1 or A2 in nature. These aptamers can also be used as therapeutic agent for overcoming effect of BCM7.
