Synthesis and properties of oligonucleotides modified with an N-methylguanidine-bridged nucleic acid (GuNA[Me]) bearing adenine, guanine, or 5-methylcytosine nucleobases

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2021
Chemical modifications have been extensively used for therapeutic oligonucleotides because they strongly enhance the stability against nucleases, binding affinity to the targets, and efficacy. We previously reported that oligonucleotides modified with an

Synthesis and anti-HIV activity of thiocholesteryl-coupled phosphodiester antisense oligonucleotides incorporated into immunoliposomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Encapsulation of oligonucleotides in antibody-targeted liposomes (immunoliposomes) which bind to target cells permits intracellular delivery of the oligonucleotides.

Expression of ssDNA in Mammalian Cells

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2003
Antisense therapy involves the use of antisense oligonucleotides for altering targeted gene function. However, the low efficiency of cell delivery of antisense oligonucleotides has limited the efficacy of antisense therapeutic approaches.

Silencing disease genes in the laboratory and the clinic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Synthetic nucleic acids are commonly used laboratory tools for modulating gene expression and have the potential to be widely used in the clinic. Progress towards nucleic acid drugs, however, has been slow and many challenges remain to be overcome before

Meeting review : ESF workshop on "Impact of nucleic acid chemistry on gene function analysis: antisense, aptamers, ribozymes and RNAi" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The shortage of functional information compared to the abundance of sequence information characterizes today’s situation in functional genomics. For many years the knock-down of a gene’s product has been the most powerful way of analysing its function ...

Polymerase-endonuclease amplification reaction (PEAR) for large-scale enzymatic production of antisense oligonucleotides. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Antisense oligonucleotides targeting microRNAs or their mRNA targets prove to be powerful tools for molecular biology research and may eventually emerge as new therapeutic agents.

Sensitivity of splice sites to antisense oligonucleotides in vivo. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
A series of HeLa cell lines which stably express beta-globin pre-mRNAs carrying point mutations at nt 654, 705, or 745 of intron 2 has been developed. The mutations generate aberrant 5' splice sites and activate a common 3' cryptic splice site upstream ...
