Patent number: 12275937Abstract: The invention relates to editing oligonucleotides (EONs) that carry stereospecific phosphorothioate internucleotide linkage modifications at specified positions and that do not carry such modifications on positions that would lower RNA editing efficiency. The selection of positions that should or should not carry a phosphorothioate Rp and/or Sp configuration modification is based on computational modelling that revealed incompatibilities of the stereospecific linkages with the intermolecular oxygen-mediated hydrogen bond network.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2019Date of Patent: April 15, 2025Assignee: ProQR Therapeutics II B.V.Inventor: Julien Auguste Germain Boudet

Publication number: 20220127609Abstract: The invention relates to editing oligonucleotides (EONs) for binding to a target nucleic acid and recruiting an enzyme with nucleotide deamination activity to edit the target nucleic acid. The EONs carry phosphonoacetate internucleotide linkage modifications and/or unlocked nucleic acid (UNA) ribose modifications at specified positions and do not carry such modifications on positions that would lower nucleic acid editing efficiency. The selection of positions that should or should not carry a modification is based on computational modelling that revealed incompatibilities of the modifications with the enzyme with nucleotide deamination activity.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 10, 2020Publication date: April 28, 2022Inventors: Julien Auguste Germain Boudet, Lenka Van Sint Fiet
