Synthesis and gene silencing activity of ribonucleic acid duplexes containing 3'-deoxy-3'-thiothymidine

This thesis reports the first synthesis and biophysical characterization of oligoribonucleotides (RNA) containing 3'-deoxy-3'-thiothymidine (3'-S-dT) units. Optimized conditions for incorporating 3'-S-dT into 21-nt RNA strands is also...
