In Vitro Selection of Aptamers for Methionine Sulfoxide
 Jureček, Matěj ; Míšek, Jiří (advisor) ; Bařinka, Cyril (referee)
Oxidation of methionine to methionine sulfoxide in proteins is considered one of important post-translational modifications of proteins. This modification can activate and also inhibit functions of many proteins and it is a part of regulation mechanisms of various (patho)physiological processes. For further research of the effects of methionine oxidation in proteins it would be very helpful to find its bioindicator. So far however, there has not been found any such antibody, nor any of its alternatives. This thesis was concerned with the search of ssDNA aptamer specific for methionine sulfoxide by the method of in vitro selection (SELEX). Several conditions for in vitro selection of methionine sulfoxide were tested in this diploma thesis. None of them led to the enrichment of the starting oligonucleotide pool and no selective aptamer for methionine sulfoxide has been found. Such results don't necessarily point to the impossibility of finding such aptamer, but the conventional methods used in this thesis weren't suitable for this task. In a control in vitro selection there has been found an enriched ssDNA pool for sulforhodamine B as a ligand. Sequencing of clones of this enriched pool has shown oligonucleotides with G-rich sequences, which is typical for already published aptamers for sulforhodamine B.
