Dsrna for inhibiting rrm2 gene expression
The granted patent (Publication Number: US11920134B2) discloses a double-stranded ribonucleic acid molecule designed to inhibit the expression of a ribonucleotide reductase M2 (RRM2) gene. The molecule consists of a sense strand and an antisense strand, each less than 30 nucleotides in length, with the antisense strand containing specific nucleotide sequences. Additionally, the molecule may include modified nucleotides such as 2'-O-methyl modified nucleotides, phosphorothioate groups, and other variations to enhance its function.
Furthermore, the patent describes variations of the double-stranded ribonucleic acid molecule, including different lengths of the sense and antisense strands, the incorporation of modified nucleotides in both strands, and the addition of a 3' overhang with specific characteristics. The patent also covers the conjugation of the molecule to a ligand for targeted delivery. Pharmaceutical compositions containing the double-stranded ribonucleic acid molecule and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier are also disclosed, providing potential applications in the field of gene expression regulation and therapeutic interventions.
