ABSTRACT:
The present invention refers to an RNA molecule with catalytic activity comprising at least one modified nucleoside, wherein the hydroxy group at the 2'-position of the fibose sugar is replaced by a modifier group, selected from halo, sulfhydryl, azido, amino, monosubstituted amino, and disubstituted andno groups, a process for the preparation of modified KNA molecules and the use of modified KNA molecules as therapeutic agents and biocatalysts.
