Bioactivity | Golodirsen (SRP-4053) is a phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomer (PMO) that specifically targets exon 53 of dystrophin pre-mRNA. Golodirsen can be used for the research of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)[1][2]. |
Invitro | Golodirsen specifically targets exon 53 of dystrophin pre-mRNA, resulting in its exclusion from the final mRNA product. Skipping of exon 53 results in restoration of the mRNA reading frame and leads to the production of a partially internally deleted dystrophin protein with intact C and N-terminal regions[2]. |
