摘要:
Oligonucleotides and other macromolecules are provided which have increased nuclease resistance, substituent groups (such as 2′-aminooxy groups) for increasing binding affinity to complementary strand, and subsequences of 2′-deoxy-erythro-pentofuranosyl nucleotides that activate RNase H. Such oligonucleotides and macromolecules are useful for diagnostics and other research purposes, for modulating the expression of a protein in organisms, and for the diagnosis, detection and treatment of other conditions susceptible to oligonucleotide therapeutics.

摘要:
Linked nucleosides having at least one functionalized nucleoside that bears a substituent such as a steroid molecule, a reporter molecule, a non-aromatic lipophilic molecule, a reporter enzyme, a peptide, a protein, a water soluble vitamin, a lipid soluble vitamin, an RNA cleaving complex, a metal chelator, a porphyrin, an alkylator, a pyrene, a hybrid photonuclease/intercalator, or an aryl azide photo-crosslinking agent exhibit increased cellular uptake and other properties. The substituent can be attached at the 2'-position of the functionalized nucleoside via a linking group. If at least a portion of the remaining liked nucleosides are 2'-deoxy-2'-fluoro, 2'-O-methoxy, 2'-O-ethoxy, 2'-O-propoxy, 2'-O-aminoalkoxy or 2'-O-allyloxy nucleosides, the substituent can be attached via a linking group at any of the 3' or the 5' positions of the nucleoside or on the heterocyclic base of the nucleoside or on the inter-nucleotide linkage linking the nucleoside to an adjacent nucleoside.
