Genetically Encoded, Functional Single-Strand RNA Origami: Anticoagulant
ADVANCED MATERIALS, 31(21).
author keywords: anticoagulants; in vitro transcription; nucleic acid nanotechnology; RNA aptamers; RNA origami
MeSH headings : Anticoagulants / chemistry; Anticoagulants / pharmacology; Aptamers, Nucleotide / chemistry; Aptamers, Nucleotide / metabolism; Aptamers, Nucleotide / pharmacology; Humans; Nucleic Acid Conformation; Partial Thromboplastin Time; RNA / chemistry; RNA / pharmacology; Thrombin / antagonists & inhibitors; Thrombin / genetics; Thrombin / metabolism
TL;DR:
A family of self‐folding, functional RNA origami molecules bearing multiple thrombin‐binding RNA aptamers and showing significantly improved anticoagulant activity is described, paving the way for development of RNA Origami for potential therapeutic applications especially as a safer surgical anticogulant.
