Abstract excerpt
A series of modified oligonucleotides (ONs), characterized by a phosphorothioate (P S) backbone and a six-membered azasugar (6-AZS) as a sugar substitute in a nucleotide, were newly synthesized and assessed for their ability to inhibit human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) via simple treatment of HIV-1-infected cultures, without any transfection process. While unmodified P S ONs exhibited only minor...
