CA 2332175

The invention relates to modularly constructed RNA molecules which can bind to a ligand and which are characterized by two sequence regions. Said first sequence region contributes to the maintenance of the three-dimensional structure of the RNA molecule, and a second sequence region is responsible for the specific bond of the ligand. These RNA molecules, e.g. the NINTROX-RNA, can be used for directly influencing the gene expression. The invention also relates to vectors containing the inventive RNA molecules, to medicaments and diagnostic compositions which contain said RNA molecules or vectors, to an antibody which specifically recognizes these RNA molecules or antisense RNA which specifically binds to these RNA molecules, or to ribozymes which split these RNA molecules. In addition, the invention relates to non-human mammals whose NINTROX gene is modified by inserting a heterologous sequence and to the cells obtained therefrom.

Molécules d'ARN à construction modulaire qui peuvent se lier à un ligand et qui sont caractérisées par deux domaines de séquence, un premier domaine de séquence qui contribue au maintien de la structure tridimensionnelle de la molécule d'ARN, et un second domaine de séquence qui est responsable de la liaison spécifique du ligand. Ces molécules d'ARN, par exemple codées par le gène NINTROX, peuvent être utilisées pour influencer directement l'expression génique. Des vecteurs contenant les molécules d'ARN selon la présente invention, ainsi que des médicaments et des compositions de diagnostic qui contiennent les molécules d'ARN et plus précisément les vecteurs précités, un anticorps reconnaissant spécifiquement ces molécules d'ARN, plus particulièrement de l'ARN antisens se liant à ces molécules d'ARN ou des ribozymes divisant ces molécules d'ARN sont également décrits. En outre, la présente invention concerne des mammifères non humains dont le gène NINTROX est modifié par insertion d'une séquence hétérologue, et les cellules ainsi obtenues.
