摘要

A 30-nucleotide DNA aptamer (5'-AGGAAGGCTTTAGGTCTGAGATCTCGGAAT-3', denoted PF1) selected for high affinity to human immunodeficiency virus reverse transcriptase (HIV RT) using a primer-free SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment) method was characterized to determine features promoting tight binding. PF1's equilibrium dissociation constant for RT was similar to 80 nM, over 10-fold lower than a random 30-mer. Changing the 2 terminal diguanosine repeats (underlined above) to diadenosine or dithymidine modestly decreased binding. Any changes to the 2 central diguanosines dramatically decreased binding. Binding was highly sensitive to length, with any truncations that deleted part of the 4 diguanosine motifs resulting in a 6-fold or more decrease in affinity. Even a construct with all the diguanosine motifs but lacking the 5' terminal A and 3 nucleotides at the 3' end showed similar to 3-fold binding decrease. Changes to the nucleotides between the diguanosines, even those that did not alter PF1's low secondary structure (free energy of folding Delta G = -0.61 kcal/mol), dramatically decreased binding, suggesting sequence specificity. Despite the diguanosine motifs, circular dichroism (CD) spectra indicated that PF1 did not form a G-quartet. PF1 inhibited HIV RT synthesis with a half-maximal inhibitory value (IC50) of similar to 60 nM. Larger, more structured RT DNA aptamers based on the HIV polypurine tract and those that formed G-quartets (denoted S4 and R1T) were more potent inhibitors, with IC50 values of similar to 4 and similar to 1 nM, respectively. An RNA pseudoknot aptamer (denoted 1.1) showed an IC50 near 4 nM. Competition binding assays with PF1 and several previously characterized RT aptamers indicated that they all bound at or near the primer-template pocket. These other more structured and typically larger aptamers bound more tightly than PF1 to RT based on filter binding assays. Results indicate that PF1 represents a new class of RT aptamers that are relatively small and have very low secondary structure, attributes that could be advantageous for further development as HIV inhibitors.
