| 20100185397 | METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE, METHOD FOR ACQUIRING SECONDARY STRUCTURE OF NUCLEIC ACID MOLECULE, APPARATUS FOR IDENTIFYING NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE, APPARATUS FOR ACQUIRING SECONDARY STRUCTURE OF NUCLEIC ACID MOLECULE, PROGRAM FOR IDENTIFYING NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE, AND PROGRAM FOR ACQUIRING SECONDARY STRUCTURE OF NUCLEIC ACID MOLECULE - It is intended to provide a method for identifying a nucleotide sequence necessary for expressing an affinity for a target substance in nucleotide sequences of nucleic acid molecules such as aptamers having the affinity for the target substance based on a homology of the respective nucleotide sequences and an evaluation value related to the affinity of the nucleotide sequences, and a method for predicting a secondary structure of a nucleic acid molecule containing the identified nucleotide sequence. The method for identifying a nucleotide sequence necessary for expressing an affinity for a target substance in nucleotide sequences of nucleic acid molecules having such an affinity is characterized by comprising the steps of: extracting a single-strand region from the nucleotide sequences of nucleic acid molecules by excluding nucleotides capable of forming a stem structure; and searching a motif sequence based on an evaluation value of the affinity from the single-strand region. | 07-22-2010 |
