Notes: All sequences are written 5' to 3' from left to right. The italicized first 18 and last 18 bases constitute constant primer binding regions for PCR amplification of aptamers. The intervening middle 64 bases were randomized in the initial SELEX DNA template library. Underlined and bolded runs of C and T bases were common among three of the lead GHRP aptamers.
