摘要
Influenza virus replication has been effectively inhibited by antisense phosphothioate oligonucleotides targeting the AUG initiation codon of PB2 mRNA, We designed RNA-cleaving DNA enzymes from 10-23 catalytic motif to target PB2-AUG initiation codon and measured their RNA-cleaving activity in vitro. Although the RNA-cleaving activity was not optimal under physiological conditions, DNA enzymes inhibited viral replication in cultured cells more effectively than antisense phosphothioate oligonucleotides. Our data indicated that DNA enzymes could be useful for the control of viral infection. (C) 2000 Federation of European Biochemical Societies. Published by Elsevier Science B.V, All rights reserved.
