Computationally Guided Design and Experimental Validation of ssDNA Aptamers Targeting the SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein

Aptamer development has traditionally relied on iterative, labor-intensive experimental approaches. Recent advances in bioinformatics and computational power now enable the rational in silico design of high-affinity nucleic acid ligands, drastically reducing time and cost. Here,...
