ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides single-stranded circular oligonucleotides each with at least one parallel binding (P) domain and at least one corresponding anti-parallel binding (AP) domain separated from each other by loop domains. When more than one P or AP domain is included in a circular oligonucleotide of the present invention, the additional P or AP domains can constitute loop domains for a pair of corresponding P and AP domains, and vice versa. Each P and AP domain has sufficient complementarity to bind to one strand of a defined nucleic acid target wherein the P domain binds in a parallel manner to the target and the corresponding AP domain binds in an anti-parallel manner to the target. Moreover, the present single-stranded circular oligonucleotides can bind to both single-stranded and double-stranded target nucleic acids. The present invention also provides methods of making and using these oligonucleotides as well as kits and pharmaceutical compositions containing these oligonucleotides.
