Development and characterization of chemical modifications for siRNA strand selection
(2021-12-01)
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) are non-coding, double-stranded RNA that enable efficient gene silencing through RNA interference (RNAi) mechanisms. The primary effector of RNAi is an RNA-guided nuclease, Ago2, which selects ...
The synthesis and in vivo evaluation of chemically modified siRNAs that contain red-shifted internal azobenzene derivative spacers for selective and tunable photocontrol of activity without UV light
(2021-08-01)
Short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are biopolymers that are used for post-transcriptional gene regulation and act as endogenous defenses against attack from viruses and dsRNA parasites. The siRNA field is making advances for ...
Synthesis, characterization and biological investigation of self-delivering and modified short interfering RNAs (siRNAs)
(2021-07-01)
Aberrant gene expression is a hallmark of disease, so it is of great interest to develop targeted therapies that provide a means to regulate gene expression. The RNA interference pathway serves as a natural defense system ...
