Experiment table

Experiment table contains description of the actual selection experiment. It contains references to citation table (in what paper this experiment was published) and target table (against what compound the aptamers were selected). This tables may also be expanded in the future to contain more information. At present, it has columns that describe whether nucleic acid used was DNA or RNA, was it modified, what kind of modifications were made, and the sequence of template's non-random part.
