title = "OligoMatcher: Analysis and selection of specific oligonucleotide sequences for gene silencing by antisense or siRNA",
abstract = "OligoMatcher is a web-based tool for analysis and selection of unique oligonucleotide sequences for gene silencing by antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) or small interfering RNA (siRNA). A specific BLAST{\textregistered} server was built for analysing sequences of ASOs that target pre-mRNA in the cell nucleus. Tissue- and cell-specific expression data of potential cross-reactive genes are integrated in the OligoMatcher program, which allows biologists to select unique oligonucleotide sequences for their target genes in specific experimental systems.",
