Mmu-miR-18a-5p miRNA Antagomir

This synthetic miRNA is based on the mature miRNA sequence. The strand of the antagomir has 2 phosphorothioates at the 5' end, 4 phosphorothioates, 1 cholesterol group at the 3' end, and full-length nucleotide 2'-methoxy modification. Stability of miRNA antagomir appears to be significantly higher than miRNA inhibitors. It exhibits enhanced cellular uptake, stability and regulatory activity and is recommended for miRNA functional studies in vitro and in vivo.

Antagomir is chemically-modified single-strand miRNA inhibitor functioning by blocking miRNA regulation of target gene expression efficiently. They are synthesized to reduce the ability of endogenous miRNAs to silence target mRNA transcripts. They can down-regulate the corresponding endogenous miRNAs. Our miRNA antagomir is single-strand miRNA inhibitor carrying the chemically modifications functioning by blocking miRNA regulation of target gene expression efficiently.
