| 摘要 |
Oligonucleotides having an internal acyclic linker residue, and the preparation and uses thereof, are described. Such uses include the preparation of acyclic linker-containing antisense oligonucleotides, and their use for the prevention or depletion of function of a target nucleic acid of interest, such as RNA, in a system. Such a prevention or depletion of function includes, for example, the prevention or inhibition of the expression, reverse transcription and/or replication of the target nucleic acid, as well as the cleavage/degradation of the target nucleic acid. Accordingly, an oligonucleotide of the invention is useful for analytical and therapeutic methods and uses in which the function of a target nucleic acid is implicated, as well as a component of commercial packages corresponding to such methods and uses.
