siRNA Modified with 2'-Deoxy-2'-C-methylpyrimidine Nucleosides
(2'S)-2'-Deoxy-2'-C-methyluridine and (2'R)-2'-deoxy-2'-C-methyluridine were incorporated in the 3'-overhang region of the sense and antisense strands and in positions 2 and 5 of the seed region of siRNA duplexes directed against Renilla luciferase, whereas (2'...
