| 摘要 |
The invention features a modified small nucleolar ribonucleic acid (snoRNA) that directs the conversion of a uridine to a pseudouridine in a target nucleic acid, e.g., RNA, that includes first and second flanking regions located on either side of the uridine. The modified snoRNA includes a ribonucleotide sequence of a box H/ACA snoRNA including a Domain A sequence and a Domain B sequence, or a Domain A sequence and a Domain C sequence, wherein the snoRNA is modified in that the Domain A sequence is replaced by a first recognition sequence complementary to at least three consecutive nucleotides in the first flanking region in the target nucleic acid, and the Domain B or C sequence is replaced by a second recognition sequence complementary to at least three consecutive nucleotides in the second flanking region in the target nucleic acid. |
