RNA Interference

RNA interference is a biological process in which RNA molecules, by neutralizing the targeted mRNA molecules, inhibit gene expression or translation. The term RNA interference (RNAi) was coined to describe a cellular mechanism that turns off using its own DNA sequence gene, which is called silencing by process researchers. RNAi is often used by researchers to silence genes to learn something about their function. RNA interference RNA interference (RNAi) is a genetic regulatory system that works by silencing the activity of certain genes. RNAi occurs naturally, by producing pre-micro RNA (pre-miRNA) encoded by the nucleus, and can be experimentally induced using short segments of synthetic double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). RNA interference (RNAi) is the pathway to “silence” genes by preventing the formation of the proteins they encode. A type of gene therapy that utilizes an intermediate step between DNA and proteins. RNA enters the cell and binds and destroys its target mRNA. All research articles become part of the permanent scientific record.
