Compositions and Methods for Sirna Inhibition of Primate Polyomavirus Genes

摘要

RNA interference using small interfering RNAs which are specific for mRNA produced from the JCV agnoprotein and large T antigen genes inhibits expression of these and other primate polyomavirus genes. Primate polyomavirus infection, and diseases which are associated with primate polyomavirus infection, can be treated by administering the small interfering RNAs.
