Abstract

Daunomycin has shown interesting properties as a stabilizing agent for the antigene methodology.This approach consists of targeting a polypurine region of a given gene, with a triplex formingoligonucleotide (TFO), realizing a triple helix complex (triplex), with the aim of down-regulatinggene expression. This chapter describes the basic principles of the triplex approach, the chemistry underliningthe binding of daunomycin to oligonucleotides, and some results of gene-inhibition obtained with daunomycin-TFOconjugates with different targets.
