Research Abstract |
The research aim of this study is to develop the strategy for constructing an artificial snoRNA regulating the target-gene expression in the cell. snoRNAs targeting2’-O-methylation to A or G at the start codon of target-mRNA were obtained by the cell-based screening with the snoRNA library. As the results of characterization for selected snoRNAs, these snoRNAs slightly reduced the target-protein expression.
