摘要:
The current invention provides oligonucleotides which comprise a dinucleotideconsisting of a 5' locked nucleic acid (LNA), a phosphorothioate intemuclosidelinkage bond to a 3' RNA or RNA analogue. The dinucleotide reduces the strengthof hybridization of the oligonucleotide to a complementary nucleic acid target.The modification can be used to modulate hybridisation properties in both singlestranded oligonucleotides and in double stranded siRNA complexes, particularlyin oligonucleotides where the use of LNA results in excessively strong hybridisationproperties.
