Figure 2: Nucleotide sequence of the studied aptamers.

The sequence alignment of selected oligonucleotides resulted in identification of two aptamers in duplicated copies (B5, F6 and D10, D12); three pairs of aptamers holding an identical nucleotide sequence motif (H8, E6; E11, E10; B10, F10). The last studied aptamer was chosen randomly (H5) from the rest of the oligonucleotides that possessed unique sequences.
