Abstract
Abstract: Antisense oligonucleotides are useful reagents for the suppression of gene expression. Their mechanism of action in eukaryotic cells appears to depend heavily on the activity of RNase H, a ubiquitous enzyme that cleaves the mRNA strand of an RNA-DNA duplex. However, the stringency requirements of RNase H are very low, and as little as a 5-base complementary region of oligomer to target may be sufficient to elicit RNase H activity. This would result in scission of nontargeted mRNAs, or what is known as “irrelevant cleavage.” One strategy to reduce RNase H competency that has been employed is modification of the oligonucleotide backbone, replacing phosphodiester linkages with uncharged methylphosphonates, which are not RNase H competent. Another strategy involves replacement of deoxyribonucleic acid with 2′-O-alkylribonucleic acid. A third strategy, eliminating RNase H dependency entirely, requires activation of RNase P. The relative merits of these strategies will be discussed in the context of selective inhibition of gene function.

<abstract lang="en">Abstract: Antisense oligonucleotides are useful reagents for the suppression of gene expression. Their mechanism of action in eukaryotic cells appears to depend heavily on the activity of RNase H, a ubiquitous enzyme that cleaves the mRNA strand of an RNA-DNA duplex. However, the stringency requirements of RNase H are very low, and as little as a 5-base complementary region of oligomer to target may be sufficient to elicit RNase H activity. This would result in scission of nontargeted mRNAs, or what is known as “irrelevant cleavage.” One strategy to reduce RNase H competency that has been employed is modification of the oligonucleotide backbone, replacing phosphodiester linkages with uncharged methylphosphonates, which are not RNase H competent. Another strategy involves replacement of deoxyribonucleic acid with 2′-O-alkylribonucleic acid. A third strategy, eliminating RNase H dependency entirely, requires activation of RNase P. The relative merits of these strategies will be discussed in the context of selective inhibition of gene function.</abstract>
