Chimeras of Cell-Penetrating Peptides Demonstrate Synergistic Improvement in Antisense Efficacy

Phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligonucleotides (PMOs) make up a promising class of therapeutics for genetic disease. PMOs designed for "exon skipping" must be internalized into cells, reach the nucleus, and act on pre-mRNA to mediate their effects. One tactic for improving PMO delivery and...
