Nature Milestones in Antisense RNA
The discovery of antisense RNA phenomena has profoundly altered our understanding of gene regulation and revolutionized the way biological research is conducted. The potency, specificity and ease of synthesis of antisense RNAs have made them ubiquitous and therapeutically-attractive agents in biomedical research.
This Milestone charts the history of antisense RNA breakthroughs on an interactive Timeline and provides key articles and relevant reviews from Nature Research journals. We hope you will enjoy the read!
