US Patent no. US 7,78 6, 292 B2, Date of Patent: Aug 31, 2010, European Patent no. EP 2013 044, Aug 29, 2012
“ANTISENSE AGENTS COMBINING STRONGLY BOUNDING BASE-MODIFIED OLIGONUCLEOTIDE AND ARTIFICIAL NUCLEASE.”
The diseases targeted by this GENECODE’s Patent protected invention are listed in the background information of the Patent:
The specific binding of antisense oligonucleotides to the DNA or RNA targets can inactivate the replication, transcription or translation of nucleic acids, thereby providing a mechanism for controlling diseases such as cancer and viral infection. The binding of antisense oligonucleotide to a target can thus be used to alter gene expression in a variety of circumstances, for example, to interfere with viral life cycles or the growth of cancerous cells.
