摘要:
The present invention provides double stranded compositions wherein one of the strands is useful in, for example, influencing the preferential loading the opposite strand into the RISC (or cleavage) complex. In particular, the present invention provides oligomeric compounds that comprise chemical modifications in at least one of the strands to drive loading of the opposite strand into the RISC (or cleavage) complex. Such modifications can be used to increase potency of duplex constructs that have been modified to enhance stability. Examples of chemical modifications that drive loading of the second strand include, but are not limited to, MOE (2′-O(CH2)2OCH3), 2′-O-methyl, -ethyl, -propyl, and —N-methylacetamide. Such modifications can be distributed throughout the strand, or placed at the 5′ and/or 3′ ends to make a gapmer motif on the sense strand. The activity of the 4′-thio gapmer RNA antisense strand can be improved by incorporating alternating MOE or MOE gapmer motif into the sense strand.
摘要:
The present invention provides double stranded compositions wherein each strand is modified to have a motif defined by positioning of β-D-ribonucleosides and sugar modified nucleosides. More particularly, the present compositions comprise one strand having an alternating motif and another strand having a hemimer motif, a blockmer motif, a fully modified motif or a positionally modified motif. At least one of the strands has complementarity to a nucleic acid target. The compositions are useful for targeting selected nucleic acid molecules and modulating the expression of one or more genes. In preferred embodiments the compositions of the present invention hybridize to a portion of a target RNA resulting in loss of normal function of the target RNA. The present invention also provides methods for modulating gene expression.
