an introduction to rna interference (rnai)
the discovery of rna interference (rnai) in recent years has revolutionized biological and medical research. rnai is the sequence-specific gene silencing triggered by double-stranded rna (dsrna). until a couple of years ago only biologists working with caenorhabditis elegans and plants could use rnai technology to gain insight into gene function……
متن کاملMedical applications of RNA interference (RNAi)
During its long and rich history, medical sciences have undergone several changes of paradigms. In this quest to develop more potent drugs, less invasive surgical techniques and more sophisticated diagnostic approaches (among other goals) medicine has contributed decisively to our well being and longevity. Some of these major accomplishments, which altered the course of humanity are: the develo...
متن کاملRNA Interference (RNAi) Screening in Drosophila
In the last decade, RNA interference (RNAi), a cellular mechanism that uses RNA-guided degradation of messenger RNA transcripts, has had an important impact on identifying and characterizing gene function. First discovered in Caenorhabditis elegans, RNAi can be used to silence the expression of genes through introduction of exogenous double-stranded RNA into cells. In Drosophila, RNAi has been ...
متن کاملRNA Interference: Systemic RNAi SIDes with Endosomes
Systemic RNAi, the intercellular spreading of RNAi silencing, requires SID-1 and SID-3 to import silencing signals in Caenorhabditis elegans. How are these signals exported? SID-5, an endosome-associated protein, is a candidate for the job.
متن کاملRole of RNA Interference (RNAi) in the Moss Physcomitrella patens
RNA interference (RNAi) is a mechanism that regulates genes by either transcriptional (TGS) or posttranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS), required for genome maintenance and proper development of an organism. Small non-coding RNAs are the key players in RNAi and have been intensively studied in eukaryotes. In plants, several classes of small RNAs with specific sizes and dedicated functions have...
