Abstract
Provided is a novel nucleic acid molecule that is a single-stranded nucleic acid molecule including an expression inhibitory sequence that inhibits expression of a target gene. The single-stranded nucleic acid molecule includes, in sequence from the 5' side to the 3′ side: a 5′ side region (Xc); an inner region (Z); and a 3′ side region (Yc). The inner region (Z) is composed of an inner 5′ side region (X) and an inner 3′ side region (Y) that are linked to each other. The 5′ side region (Xc) is complementary to the inner 5′ side region (X). The 3′ side region (Yc) is complementary to the inner 3′ side region (Y). At least one of the inner region (Z), the 5′ side region (Xc), and the 3′ side region (Yc) includes the expression inhibitory sequence.
