1 Silencing Viruses by Rna Interference
Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) makes possible new approaches for studying the various steps of the viral cycle. Plus-strand RNA viruses appear to be attractive targets for small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), as their genome functions as both mRNA and replication template. PTGS creates an alternative to classic reverse genetics for viruses with either negative-strand or double-stranded ...
متن کاملOvercoming HIV-1 resistance to RNA interference.
RNAi refers to the sequence-specific degradation of RNA that follows the cellular introduction of homologous short interfering (si) RNA. RNAi has emerged as a powerful tool to probe the function of genes of known sequence in vitro and in vivo. Advances in vector design permit the effective expression of siRNA in human cells. Numerous recent investigations have described the ability of RNAi to d...
متن کاملBcr-abl Silencing by Specific Small-Interference RNA Expression Vector as a Potential Treatment for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
Background: RNA interference (RNAi) is the mechanism of gene silencing-mediated messenger RNA degradation by small interference RNA (siRNA), which becomes a powerful tool for in vivo research, especially in the areas of cancer. In this research, the potential use of an expression vector as a specific siRNA producing tool for silencing of Bcr-abl in K562 cell line has been investigated. Methods:...
متن کاملRna Interference: Tool for Gene Silencing
Over the past two decades, dramatic advances in the role of RNA in normal health and disease have been greatly expanded. During development Small RNA molecules regulate eukaryotic gene expression and also during responses to stress including viral infection. RNA interference (RNAi) is a highly conserved process in eukaryotes that leads to post-transcriptional gene silencing through degradation ...
متن کاملA novel approach for inhibition of HIV-1 by RNA interference: counteracting viral escape with a second generation of siRNAs
RNA interference (RNAi) is an evolutionary conserved gene silencing mechanism in which small interfering RNA (siRNA) mediates the sequence specific degradation of mRNA. The recent discovery that exogenously delivered siRNA can trigger RNAi in mammalian cells raises the possibility to use this technology as a therapeutic tool against pathogenic viruses. Indeed, it has been shown that siRNAs can ...
