Abstract
Degradation of a synthetic alpha-oligodeoxynucleotide was studied in order to compare its survival with naturally occurring beta-oligodeoxynucleotides in five systems used for antisense hybridization arrest experiments. In contrast to beta-oligodeoxynucleotides, alpha-oligodeoxynucleotides were not detectably degraded over 24 h at 37 degrees C in HeLa cell postmitochondrial cytoplasmic extract or RPMI 1640 with 10% fetal bovine serum, and showed significant survival after 24 h at 37 degrees C in rabbit reticulocyte lysate, fetal bovine serum and human serum.Entities:
