The present invention provides a single-stranded nucleic acid molecule having a delivery function and capable of inhibiting expression of a target gene. The single-stranded nucleic acid molecule of the present invention is a single-stranded nucleic acid molecule composed of a region (Xc), a linker region (Lx) and a region (X), wherein said region (Xc) is complementary to said region (X), at least one of said region (X) and said region (Xc) contains an expression inhibitory sequence that inhibits expression of the target gene, and a bio-related substance having a delivery function is bonded to at least one selected from the group consisting of the 5'-terminus, the 3'-terminus, and said linker region (Lx).
