Chimeric molecules to modulate gene expression

摘要

The present invention provides a chimeric molecule including a base-pairing segment that binds specifically to a single-stranded nucleic acid molecule; and a moiety that modulates splicing or translation. The invention also provides a chimeric molecule including a base-pairing segment that binds specifically to a double-stranded nucleic acid molecule; and a peptide that modulates transcription, wherein the peptide comprises up to about one hundred amino acid residues.
