Beskrivning

discusses the development of simple, reliable tools for modifying gene expression "on demand"; addresses the numerous problems slowing down progress in this field, such as the variable and unreliable use of OLGs to modify gene expression; addresses the poor understanding of the processes which regulate trafficking and govern whether and where an oligonucleotide (OLG) can interact with its target.
