Preparation of Antisense Oligonucleotides to Inhibit miRNA Function
Abstract
This protocol is used to design antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) for specific inhibition of miRNA function in cultured cells. The incorporation of 2′-O-methyl-modifications in ASOs enhances their potency and resistance to degradation, whereas 3′-terminal cholesterol-conjugation facilitates delivery of ASOs into cells.
