Antisense definition

Antisense means the production and/or use for therapeutic purposes of stabilized synthetic oligonucleotides.
Antisense means [*];
Antisense means inhibiting or preventing in vivo expression in a human or animal of a gene product by use of an oligonucleotide or modified oligonucleotide which binds to RNA or DNA to prevent and/or impair expression of the gene product. 1.4 "Blocking Claim" shall mean a claim under any patent application or granted patent anywhere in the world which generically but not specifically covers (i) any and all compounds (and/or the use thereof) which interact with or prevent interaction with a specified Target and/or (ii) any and all antibodies (and/or the use thereof) against a specific Target or Therapeutic Protein. The following are examples of "blocking claims": (1) a compound which interacts with receptor X; (2) a compound which prevents binding between receptor X and its ligand, (3) a process for activating receptor X, comprising: contacting receptor X with a compound which binds thereto and activates the receptor; (4) a process for preventing activation of receptor X comprising: contacting receptor X with a compound which prevents binding between receptor X and its ligand. 1.5 "Bioinformatics" shall mean computer software and know-how useful for the analysis, comparison, and curation of human nucleic acid and protein sequences, and information related to such sequences; and software for the construction and maintenance of databases for the compilation of such sequences and their associated information; each as developed through the end of the Initial Research Term. Bioinformatics shall include software for the prediction of the three-dimensional structure of proteins from primary sequence information but Bioinformatics shall not include software for rational drug design based on such three-dimensional structure. 1.6 "Collaboration Agreement"shall mean the Collaboration Agreement entered into between SB and HGS effective as of May 19, 1993, as amended and/or superseded from time to time. 1.7 "Collaboration Partner Agreement" shall mean an agreement between or among SB and/or HGS and (1) Synthelabo substantially in accordance with a memorandum of intent dated March 11, 1996; (2) SP substantially in accordance with a memorandum of intent dated April 21, 1996; (3) Takeda substantially in accordance with the SB/Takeda Collaboration and License Agreement dated June 5, 1995; and (4) a COLLABORATION PARTNER, in addition to (1) and (2) or substituted for (1) or (2), wherein
