Abstract excerpt
Hammerhead ribozymes are small, catalytic RNAs that can be designed to effectively inhibit gene expression in an allele-specific manner. It is the high level of sequence discrimination, coupled with the minimal cleavage-site requirements of hammerhead ribozymes, that makes these catalytic RNAs so amenable for use as therapeutic agents for autosomal dominant diseases. Here, we present a detailed set of protocols...
