Problems solved by technology

Although these kits can detect HCV antigens, because these kits are detected by double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked assay (ELISA), a large amount of monoclonal antibody preparation is required
However, the preparation process of monoclonal antibodies is complicated, expensive, and the storage conditions are harsh.
This makes the cost of detecting HCV virus higher, and the detection sensitivity is also seriously affected

Abstract

The invention discloses a nucleic acid aptamer of an affinity viral hepatitis C core protein and an application of the nucleic acid aptamer. The nucleic acid aptamer is the following (a) or (b): (a) single-stranded DNA represented by sequence 2 in a sequence table; (b) single-stranded DNA containing the nucleic acid aptamer described in (a). Due to the adoption of the nucleic acid aptamer disclosed by the invention, the viral hepatitis C core protein in a solution can be captured and the viral hepatitis C core protein in a solution can also be detected, which are conductive to hepatitis C serology diagnosis and blood screening. By virtue of the nucleic acid aptamer disclosed by the invention, the monoclonal antibody can be partially replaced to capture core protein for detecting hepatitis C and the nucleic acid aptamer has the advantages of high sensitivity, low cost, and convenience in production and preservation. The nucleic acid aptamer has a relatively high application value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and relates to a nucleic acid aptamer affinity to the core protein of hepatitis C virus and its application, in particular to a nucleic acid aptamer affinity to the core protein of hepatitis C virus and its role in assisting the identification of hepatitis C application in patients. Background technique [0002] Viral hepatitis C is an infectious disease caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV), which can be transmitted through blood or blood products. At present, there are nearly 200 million people infected with HCV in the world, and about 40 million to 50 million people are infected with HCV in my country, second only to the number of hepatitis B carriers. Since hepatitis C is caused by an RNA virus, no effective HCV vaccine has been developed worldwide. Only early detection and early treatment of hepatitis C can reduce the damage of the virus to liver cells. Therefore, it is of great significance ...
