Improvement of a miRNA inhibitor by intracellular selection
Sequences surrounding the miRNA binding domain of the miRNA inhibitor LidNA were selected intracellularly. The library was transfected into cells, and then, inhibitors that were associated with argonaute 2 were selected. The potent inhibitors were slowly degraded intracellularly, while the lower-act...

Zusammenfassung: | Sequences surrounding the miRNA binding domain of the miRNA inhibitor LidNA were selected intracellularly. The library was transfected into cells, and then, inhibitors that were associated with argonaute 2 were selected. The potent inhibitors were slowly degraded intracellularly, while the lower-activity inhibitors were rapidly degraded. A combination of the selected sequences surrounding the miRNA binding domain enhanced miRNA inhibitory activity.
