Precision Aptamers Against a Native GPCR through Ligand-Guided Selection

Agbor Vydaline, Mitali Bhate, Divyani Sitaldin, Yilam Ng Cen, Sergei Rozhkov, German Sosa, Amédée des Georges, Prabodhika R. Mallikaratchy

This paper introduces a ligand-guided selection method to discover aptamers specific to GPCRs in their native membrane context, showing they bind selectively to cell-surface receptors and induce internalization.
