Antisense properties of 2'-O-dimethylaminooxyethyl (2'-O-DMAOE) oligonucleotides

Nucleosides Nucleotides Nucleic Acids. 2001 Apr-Jul;20(4-7):829-32. doi: 10.1081/NCN-100002439.

Abstract

Antisense oligonucleotides with 2'-O-(2-[N,N-dimethyl)aminooxy]ethyl) or (2'-O-DMAOE) modification were synthesized and evaluated for nuclease resistance and pharmacology both in vitro and in vivo. This modification exhibits very high nuclease resistance and efficacy in various biological (ICAM-1, C-raf and PKC-alpha) targets.
