    摘要: Certain embodiments are directed to methods and compounds for inhibiting UBE3A-ATS, the endogenous antisense transcript of ubiquitin protein ligase E3A (UBE3A). Such methods and compounds are useful for. Several embodiments provided herein relate to the discovery that antisense compounds targeting UBE3A-ATS induce paternal expression of UBE3A. Several embodiments are drawn to methods and compounds for inducing paternal expression of UBE3A using antisense compounds targeting UBE3A-ATS within a region of UBE3A-ATS that includes the sequence of the small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA), HBII-85 (also referred to as SNORD116).
