The beauty of symmetry: siRNA phosphorodithioate modifications reduce stereocomplexity, ease analysis, and can improve in vivo potency

Phosphorothioates (PSs) can be essential in stabilizing therapeutic oligonucleotides against enzymatic degradation. However, unless synthesis is performed with stereodefined amidites, each PS introduces a chemically undefined stereocenter, resulting in 2n unique molecules in the final product and af...
