  • Patent number: 11066668
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides compounds comprising oligonucleotides complementary to a portion of the IKBKAP gene. Certain such compounds are useful for hybridizing to a portion of the IKBKAP gene, including but not limited to a portion of the IKBKAP gene in a cell. In certain embodiments, such hybridization results in modulation of splicing of the IKBKAP gene. In certain embodiments, the IKBKAP gene includes a mutation that results in defective splicing and a truncated IKAP protein. In certain embodiments, hybridization of oligonucleotides complementary to a portion of the IKBKAP gene results in a decrease in the amount of defective splicing and truncated IKAP protein. In certain embodiments, hybridization of oligonucleotides complementary to a portion of the IKBKAP gene results in an increase in the amount of normal splicing and functional, full-length IKAP protein. In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides are used to treat Familial Dysautonomia.

  • Patent number: 9518259
    Abstract: Provided herein are antisense compounds and methods for recruiting one or more non-cleaving protein to a target nucleic acid in a cell. In certain instances such recruitment of a non-cleaving protein alters the function or activity of the target nucleic acid. In certain such instances, the target nucleic acid a pre-mRNA and the recruitment of the non-cleaving protein results in a change in splicing of the pre-mRNA.
