  • 2?/3?/5?-(R/S)-serinyl functionalized oligonucleotides
    Patent number: 9920319
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel chiral serinyl functionalized tethered oligunucleotides i.e. R/S serinyl functionalized tethered oligonucleotides and the process of preparation thereof. Specifically, the present invention provides a modified nucleoside unit containing the R/S serinyl derivative at 2? of the sugar unit which is introduced in a nucleotide sequence. Also, capping of the oligonucleotides with abasic serinyl derivative to render the nuclease stability to the oligonucleotiedds is also disclosed. The chiral serinyl functionalized tethered oligonucleotides, 2?-O-[R/S-(2-amino-3-methoxy)propyl] nucleic acids with both ?3- and 5?-ends capped with two units of abasic serine have antisense activity against the miRNA.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 2, 2014
    Date of Patent: March 20, 2018
    Assignee: COUNCIL OF SCIENTIFIC & INDUSTRIAL RESEARCH
    Inventors: Vaijayanti Anil Kumar, Venubabu Kotikam, Souvik Maiti, Smita Nahar
