Abstract
Oligonucleotide derivatives conjugated to a chemical construction,vith two histamine residues imitating the catalytic center of ribonuclease A have been synthesized. In experiments with the conjugates complemen tary to the 3'-end and to the variable loop and the T loop of yeast tR NA(Phe), if was shown that the compounds can accomplish sequence-speci fic cleavage of the target RNA in physiologic conditions.
