The discovery of RNAi dates back to the 1990s when researchers observed unexpected gene silencing in plants and fungi. In 1998, Andrew Fire and Craig Mello published a groundbreaking study ...

a phenomenon called RNA interference or RNAi. The apparently widespread nature of RNAi in eukaryotes, ranging from trypanosome to mouse, has sparked great interest from both applied and ...

[28] RNA interference (RNAi) is a naturally occurring biological pathway in which small, double-stranded RNA molecules suppress gene expression in an exquisitely sequence-specific manner Exogenous ...

Efficient RNA interference in Caenorhabditis elegans requires a distinct class of secondary short interfering RNA. Although many proteins involved in RNAi were initially studied in the context of ...

RNA interference (RNAi) acts like a "gene switch," selectively silencing specific genes. It uses specialized RNA molecules, such as small interfering RNA (siRNA) or microRNA (miRNA), to block ...

RNA interference – RNAi – functions specifically to silence, or deactivate, genes. Among other applications, it promises to be groundbreaking as a way to treat infections of bees by a commercially ...
