摘要
An affinity capillary electrophoresis/laser-induced fluorescence (CE/LIF) assay was developed for direct and specific detection of reverse transcriptase (RI) of the type I human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) using fluorescently labeled single-stranded DNA aptamers as probes. The aptamer used (Rr 26) is specific for HIV-1 RT, and it exhibited no cross-reactivity with RTs of the enhanced avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV), the Moloney murine leukemia virus (MMLV), or denatured HIV-1 RT An affinity complex of Rr 26-HIV-1 RT was readily formed, and calibration curves were linear up to 50 nM (6 mug/mL) HIV-1 RT concentration, with both the free probe and complex peak usable for analytical quantitation. Cell culture media (RPMI with 10% fetal bovine serum) interfered with the assay and aptamer-HIV-1 RT binding. Nonspecific binding was observed in low or undiluted culture, necessitating at least 100-fold dilution for analysis of raw culture samples.
