This invention provides compounds, compositions and methods for modulating the expression of target genes using RNA interference. RNAi structures and molecules of this invention can be used for modulating or silencing the expression of genes, with high levels of RNAi activity and reduced off target actions. Advantageous structures include siRNAs targeted to any gene having one or more 2'-deoxy nucleotides located in the seed region. The RNA interference molecules can be used in methods for preventing or treating diseases.本發明提供用於使用RNA干擾來調節靶基因之表現之化合物、組合物及方法。本發明之RNAi構造及分子可用於以高RNAi活性程度及減低脫靶作用來調節或靜默基因表現。有利構造包含靶向任一具有一或多個位於種子區(seed region)中之2'-去氧核苷酸之基因之siRNA。該等RNA干擾分子可用於預防或治療疾病之方法中。
