Un autre axe de recherche est la mise en œuvre des oligonucléotides chimériques qui sont formés par l'association d'un brin d'ADN [acide désoxyribonucléique] et d'un brin d'ARN [acide ribonucléique] complémentaires des régions chromosomiques à corriger. Cela permettra sans doute de réparer des mutations ponctuelles de gènes défectueux. 1, record 1, French, - oligonucl%C3%A9otide%20chim%C3%A9rique

Présent à forte concentration dans la cellule, l'oligonucléotide est qualifié de «chimérique», ou de «chiméraplaste», puisqu'il est constitué d'ADN [acide désoxyribonucléique] et d'ARN [acide ribonucléique], deux matériaux génétiques différents. 2, record 1, French, - oligonucl%C3%A9otide%20chim%C3%A9rique

Reparar el gen: Los intentos para reparar las mutaciones puntuales a nivel génico son hechos usando cortos oligonucleotidos quiméricos, que contienen tanto ARN [ácido ribonucleico] sobre una de las cadenas como ADN [ácido desoxirribonucleico] sobre la otra. La cadena de ADN de los oligonucleotidos quiméricos es perfectamente complementaria a la correcta secuencia génica del sitio de la mutación puntual del gen, mientras que la parte de ARN es perfectamente complementaria a la secuencia mutante. 1, record 1, Spanish, - oligonucle%C3%B3tido%20quim%C3%A9rico
