Part of the book series: Methods in Molecular Biology™ ((MIMB,volume 133))

Abstract

Antisense oligonucleotides have been extensively used as downregulators of gene expression (1), and as such are not only increasingly used in various fields as sequence-specific research tools (2–4), but are also tested in clinical trials as antiviral and anticancer agents (5–8).
