Abstract

Antisense and siRNA oligonucleotides have been widely used in the past decade as an efficient gene-silencing tool in molecular biological investigations. However, their therapeutic application has hitherto been hampered by their poor pharmacokinetic properties.

Highlights

  • Antisense and siRNA oligonucleotides have been widely used in the past decade as an efficient gene-silencing tool in molecular biological investigations

  • The main focus of this work lies on the synthesis of a modified adenosine nucleoside which is aimed to serve as the joining point of oligopeptide moiety at the 2’-position

  • The oligonucleotide was afterwards synthesized on a DNA-synthesizer
