Since alternative splicing patterns are exhibited by most mammalian genes, the functional properties of a gene may be changed for therapeutic purposes by nudging splicing from one pattern to another. Splicing to a refractory exon can be enhanced usin... Read More about Conjugation of PEG and gold nanoparticles to increase the accessibility and valency of tethered RNA splicing enhancers.
