主权项 1. A single stranded oligonucleotide having a sequence 5′-X-Y-Z, wherein X is any nucleotide, Y is a nucleotide sequence of 6 nucleotides in length that is not a seed sequence of a human microRNA, and Z is a nucleotide sequence of 1-23 nucleotides in length, wherein the single stranded oligonucleotide is complementary with at least 8 consecutive nucleotides of a PRC2-associated region of an SMN gene.
