Catalytic Knockdown of miR-21 by Artificial Ribonuclease: Biological Performance in Tumor Model [PDF]
Control of the expression of oncogenic small non-coding RNAs, notably microRNAs (miRNAs), is an attractive therapeutic approach. We report a design platform for catalytic knockdown of miRNA targets with artificial, sequence-specific ribonucleases ...

Site-Specific Cleavage of RNAs Derived from the PIM1 3′-UTR by a Metal-Free Artificial Ribonuclease [PDF]
Oligonucleotide conjugates of tris(2-aminobenzimidazole) have been reported previously to cleave complementary RNA strands with high levels of sequence and site specificity.

RNase T1 mimicking artificial ribonuclease. [PDF]
Recently, artificial ribonucleases (aRNases)--conjugates of oligodeoxyribonucleotides and peptide (LR)(4)-G-amide--were designed and assessed in terms of the activity and specificity of RNA cleavage. The conjugates were shown to cleave RNA at Pyr-A and G-X sequences. Variations of oligonucleotide length and sequence, peptide and linker structure led to

Sequence-specific RNA cleavage by PNA conjugates of the metal-free artificial ribonuclease tris(2-aminobenzimidazole) [PDF]
Tris(2-aminobenzimidazole) conjugates with antisense oligonucleotides are effective site-specific RNA cleavers. Their mechanism of action is independent of metal ions. Here we investigate conjugates with peptide nucleic acids (PNA).

Opening new frontiers with catalytic nucleic acids in miRNA inhibition [PDF]
The concept of utilizing synthetic nucleic acids and their conjugates with biologically active molecules as RNA-targeted therapeutic agents represents a powerful strategy in the treatment of human pathologies. Recent research demonstrates that neoplastic

Enhanced RNA cleavage within bulge-loops by an artificial ribonuclease. [PDF]
Cleavage of phosphodiester bonds by small ribonuclease mimics within different bulge-loops of RNA was investigated. Bulge-loops of different size (1-7 nt) and sequence composition were formed in a 3' terminal fragment of influenza virus M2 RNA (96 nt) by hybridization of complementary oligodeoxynucleotides. Small bulges (up to 4 nt) were readily formed

Organomercury oligonucleotide conjugates as artificial ribonucleases
Two oligonucleotide conjugates sharing the same sequence but incorporating a different 5'-terminal organometallic moiety were synthesized, by either direct mercuration in solution or oximation with an organomercury aldehyde on solid support. The potential of these conjugates to serve as new type of artificial ribonucleases was tested with a ...
