Abstract
Provided herein are compositions, compounds, and methods of modulating gene expression. In certain embodiments described herein is a composition, wherein the composition comprises an antagoNAT. In some embodiments, the antagoNAT is an oligonucleotide comprising modified and unmodified sugar subunits, wherein the antagoNAT hybridizes with a natural antisense transcript. Certain embodiments of the present invention provide a method for modulating gene expression in a cell comprising contacting the cell with an antagoNAT. In some embodiments, the method includes forming a hybrid comprising the antagoNAT and a natural antisense transcript of the gene, wherein the hybrid sterically blocks the normal function of the natural antisense transcript.
