ABSTRACT:
A novel nucleic acid construct for delivery of antisense targeting sequences is provided. The construct includes intact stem loop structures and an antisense nucleic acid. Optionally, a ribozyme nucleic acid is included in the construct. The construct is useful for inhibition of selected genes in a cell. This allele-specific targeting is also useful in combination with replacement gene therapy.
