The present technology relates to compositions and methods for modulating expression of genes which include a target oligonucleotide sequence, such as repeats of a particular oligonucleotide sequence containing 3 to 10 nucleotides. In particular aspects, the present technology relates to agents having a formula A-L-B, wherein -L- is a linker; A- is a Brd4 binding moiety; and &#x2014;B is a nucleic acid binding moiety, such as a polyamide or complementary oligonucleotide, that specifically binds to the target oligonucleotide sequence.
