Abstract
The present invention is related to a nucleic acid molecule comprising a double-stranded structure, whereby the double-stranded structure comprises a first strand and a second strand, whereby the first strand comprises a first stretch of contiguous nucleotides and said first stretch is at least partially complementary to a target nucleic acid, and whereby the second strand comprises a second stretch of contiguous nucleotides and said second stretch is at least partially complementary to the first stretch, whereby the first stretch comprises a nucleic acid sequence which is at least complementary to a nucleotide core sequence of the nucleic acid sequence according to SEQ ID NO: 1, whereby the nucleotide core sequence comprises the nucleotide sequence from nucleotide positions 1755 to 1763 of SEQ ID NO: 1; from nucleotide positions 1904 to 1912 of SEQ.ID.No.1; from nucleotide positions 1905 to 1913 of SEQ ID NO: 1; from nucleotide positions 2548 to 2556 of SEQ ID NO: 1; whereby the first stretch is additionally at least partially complementary to a region preceding the 5' end of the nucleotide core sequence and/or to a region following the 3′ end of the nucleotide core sequence.
