siRNA carrying an (E)-vinylphosphonate moiety at the 5΄ end of the guide strand augments gene silencing by enhanced binding to human Argonaute-2

Efficient gene silencing by RNA interference (RNAi) in vivo requires the recognition and binding of the 5΄- phosphate of the guide strand of an siRNA by the Argonaute protein. However, for exogenous siRNAs it is limited by the rapid removal of the 5΄- phosphate of the guide strand by metabolic enzym...
