Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9014090A1] The present invention relates to the induction of proteins and the activation of enzymes in the cells of living organisms, including human beings. According to the invention, long nucleic and complexes, such as the polyriboinosinate and polycytidylate complexes, are modified to yield short dsRNA of defined sequence. Said short dsRNAs of defined sequence retain the ability to induce proteins and activate enzymes but are not as toxic as long dsRNA.

Abstract (fr)

L'invention concerne l'induction de protéines ainsi que l'activation d'enzymes dans les cellules d'organismes vivants, parmi lesquels l'homme. Selon l'invention on modifie des complexes d'acides nucléiques longs, tels que des complexes de polyriboinosinate et de polycytidylate, afin de produire un ARN bicaténaire court de séquence définie. Lesdits ARN bicaténaires courts de séquence définie conservent la capacité d'induire des protéines et d'activer des enzymes, mais ne sont pas aussi toxiques que les ARN bicaténaires longs.
