Antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN)s are synthetic polymers:
the monomers are deoxynucleotides like those in DNA
there are usually only 15-20 of them, hence "oligo" ...

Antisense RNA. A complementary RNA sequence that binds to a naturally occurring (sense) mRNA molecule, thus blocking its translation. (See RNA.)
Asexual reproduction. Nonsexual means of reproduction which can include grafting and budding.

Antisense RNA
An RNA molecule that can hybridize to an mRNA molecule. Hybridization of an antisense RNA molecule to the translation start sites on an mRNA prevents the initiation of translation.

Sense and antisense
As a result of their antiparallel arrangement and the sequence-reading preferences of enzymes, even if both strands carried identical instead of complementary sequences, cells could properly translate only one of them.

Antisense RNA. A complementary RNA sequence that binds to a naturally occurring (sense) mRNA molecule, thus blocking its translation. (See RNA.) Asexual reproduction. Nonsexual means of reproduction which can include grafting and budding. Autosome.

Some people use the term ‘coding strand' and ‘non-coding strand' to refer to the sense and antisense strands, respectively. Unfortunately, many people interpret these terms in exactly the opposite way.

The 5' ends of the transcripts overlap. The outward, antisense, transcript is more stable than the transposase mRNA.
IS10R transposase mutants are only weakly complemented by wild type IS10 modules.

In developing zebrafish, reggies become concentrated in neurons and axon tracts, and their absence, after morpholino antisense RNA-knockdown, results in deformed embryos with reduced brains.
