ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are stabilized ribozyme analogs having the ability to endonucleolytically cleave a sequence of 3' to 5' linked ribonucleotides. These ribozyme analogs include modifications at specific loop, catalytic core, and flanking region nucleotides which makes them more resistant to nucleases. Also disclosed are methods of preparing and utilizing the ribozyme analogs of the invention, and pharmaceutical formulations and kits containing such ribozyme analogs.
