Aptamer hybridizes with its complementary strand. However, the complementary strand has difficulties to hybridize with the aptamer bound to a target because the aptamer forms higher-order structures. Exploiting this property, we developed simple bound/free separation systems for thrombin and IgE detection. The complementary strand was immobilized onto beads and the aptamer was labeled with pyrroquinoline quinone glucose dehydrogenase (PQQGDH). In the absence of a target, the aptamer is trapped by beads, whereas in the presence of a target. the aptamer bound to the target is not trapped. Thus the aptamer-target complexes can be recovered easily and detected by PQQGDH activity. This system allow the detection of 270 pM thrombin and 1 nM IgE.
