Title:
ANTISENSE OLIGONUCLEOTIDE DIRECTED REMOVAL OF PROTEOLYTIC CLEAVAGE SITES, THE HCHWA-D MUTATION, AND TRINUCLEOTIDE REPEAT EXPANSIONS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/053624
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to means and methods for removing a proteolytic cleavage site, the HCHWA-D mutation or the amino acids encoded by a trinucleotide repeat expansion from a protein comprising providing a cell that expresses pre-m RNA encoding said protein with an anti-sense oligonucleotide that induces skipping of the exonic sequence that comprises said proteolytic cleavage site, HCHWA-D mutation or trinucleotide repeat expansion, respectively, the method further comprising allowing translation of m RNA produced from said pre-m RNA.
