Abstract: The present invention relates to a DNA aptamer binding specifically to tuberculosis specific antigen 7.7 kDa (TB7.7), a biosensor for diagnosis of tuberculosis, comprising the same, and a method for providing information for diagnosis of tuberculosis. The present inventors found that not only does a DNA aptamer according to the present invention have specific binding potential to TB7.7 protein, but also the binding affinity is excellent. When used, the DNA aptamer of the present invention can be thus expected to exhibit greater stability than a conventional ELISA method using an antibody. Hence, the aptamer is expected to find useful applications in the development of compositions for tuberculosis diagnosis, biosensors for tuberculosis diagnosis, and information providing methods for tuberculosis diagnosis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a DNA aptamer binding specifically to early secretory antigenic target 6 kDa (ESAT6), a biosensor for diagnosis of tuberculosis, comprising the same, and a method for providing information for diagnosis of tuberculosis. The present inventors found that not only does a DNA aptamer according to the present invention have specific binding potential to ESAT6 protein, but also the binding affinity is excellent. When used, the DNA aptamer of the present invention can be thus expected to exhibit greater stability than a conventional ELISA method using an antibody. Hence, the aptamer is expected to find useful applications in the development of compositions for tuberculosis diagnosis, biosensors for tuberculosis diagnosis, and information providing methods for tuberculosis diagnosis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to: a DNA aptamer specifically binding to culture filtrate 10 kDa (CFP10); a biosensor for diagnosing tuberculosis, comprising the same: and an information providing method for diagnosing tuberculosis. The present applicants have ascertained that the DNA aptamer, according to the present invention, has the ability to specifically bind to a CFP10 protein and that the binding strength thereof is strong. When the DNA aptamer of the present invention is used, excellent stability superior to that of ELISA methods using existing antibodies can be expected, and thus it is expected that the aptamer can be effectively used in the development of a composition for diagnosing tuberculosis, a biosensor for diagnosing tuberculosis, an information providing method for diagnosing tuberculosis, and the like.
