Preferred Label : Morpholino;
NCIt definition : An antisense oligonucleotide modified to be more stable than RNA. While morpholinos
have standard nucleic acid bases, those bases are bound to morpholine rings instead
of deoxyribose rings and linked through phosphorodiamidate groups instead of phosphates.
Morpholinos are used to inhibit translation or splicing of specific, complementary
mRNAs.;
