An object of the present invention is to develop and provide a method for efficiently producing a nucleic acid aptamer, particularly, a DNA aptamer, having higher specificity and binding activity against a target substance than those of nucleic acid aptamers obtained by conventional methods. The present invention provides a transcribable or replicable nucleic acid aptamer comprising a natural nucleotide and a non-natural nucleotide having an artificial base-pairable artificial base. The present invention also provides a method for sequencing a non-natural nucleotide-containing single-stranded nucleic acid molecule selected from a single-stranded nucleic acid library.
