RNA Secondary Structure-Based Design of Antisense Peptide Nucleic Acids for Modulating Disease-Associated Aberrant Tau Pre-mRNA Alternative Splicing

Alternative splicing of tau pre-mRNA is regulated by a 5′ splice site (5′ss) hairpin present at the exon 10−intron 10 junction. Single mutations within the hairpin sequence alter hairpin structural stability and/or the binding of splicing factors, resulting in disease-c...
