POLYAMIDE MODULATORS OF COX2 TRANSCRIPTION

摘要

Processes and compositions are provided for regulating COX2 gene expression in a cell. The process includes selecting a polyamide composition comprising N-methyl pyrrole (Py) and N-methyl imidazole (Im) to provide specific binding to DNA at a COX2 gene target site in a cell. The polyamide is then combined with the cell containing the COX2 gene, wherein the polyamide binds to the COX2 gene promoter target site and regulates transcription of the COX2 gene.
