  • Publication number: 20210230593
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are programmable, conditionally activated small interfering RNA constructs (Cond-siRNAs) and methods of making and using the same as therapeutic agents. The Cond-siRNA comprises a sensor strand, a core strand, and a guide strand, which crossover to form a sensor duplex and a RNAi duplex attached to each other to form a single structure. Upon binding an input strand to the sensor strand, the Cond-siRNA is activated and releases RNAi targeting a desired gene.

  • Publication number: 20200157533
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are multi-way oligonucleotide junctions for delivering one or more cargo molecules to a biological target and method of making such junctions. The oligonucleotide junctions are formed by two or more oligonucleotides and are stable outside the cell and easily dissociate inside the cell to release the cargo molecule(s). One or more cargo molecules as well as delivery ligand can be loaded to the junctions for targeted delivery. Also disclosed are nanostructures including one or more junctions attached to each other for delivering two or more cargo molecules.

  • Patent number: 9725715
    Abstract: Provided herein are signal activatable molecular constructs for delivery of molecules and related components, compositions, methods, and systems, having a 17 to 30 bp targeting domain duplex RNA, at least one protection strand having a protection segment and linker segment and a sensor strand having a displacement segment and a toehold segment, in which in an inactive conformation the protection segment and the displacement segment form a sensor domain duplex polynucleotide covalently attached to the targeting domain and presenting the toehold segment for binding to a signal molecule. In an active conformation the sensor strand is bound to the signal molecule and is detached from the at least one protection strand and from the targeting domain; and the targeting domain attaches the at least one protection strand in a configuration allowing processing by Dicer and/or an Argonaute enzyme.

  • Publication number: 20160289681
    Abstract: Provided herein are, inter alia, antiviral recombinant nucleic acid compositions and methods of using the same. The recombinant nucleic acid compositions include nucleic acids encoding antiviral polycistronic RNAs, which are capable of inhibiting viral replication. The antiviral recombinant nucleic acid compositions provided herein are therefore particularly useful for therapeutic applications such as combinational HIV-1 gene therapy.
