    摘要: The present disclosure relates to compounds and methods for modulating the expression ofc9orf72 (brain expressed, associated with NEDD4) and treating diseases and conditions in which c9orf72 plays an active role. The compound can be a transcription modulator molecule having a first terminus, a second terminus, and oligomeric backbone, wherein: a) the first terminus comprises a DNA-binding moiety capable of noncovalently binding to a nucleotide repeat sequence GGGGCC; b) the second terminus comprises a protein-binding moiety binding to a regulatory molecule that modulates an expression of a gene comprising the nucleotide repeat sequence GGGGCC; and c) the oligomeric backbone comprising a linker between the first terminus and the second terminus.
