General Information
|
| Term |
systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment |
ID (Ontology) |
MI:0657 (Molecular Interactions) |
| Definition |
RNA and cDNA constructs with variable central sequences and a constant flanking region are collected in a complex library. The library is then screened to select either specific binding partners of a bait molecule (generally a protein) or particular enzymatic activities of the nucleic acid molecules themselves. The selected nucleic acids are amplified using the constant flanking regions to increase their abundance. Cycles of selection-amplification can be repeated to increase the specificity of the targets that, at the end, are individually identified by sequencing.[ PubMed:11539574 ] |
