Small Interfering RNA
Small Interfering RNA (siRNA) is a technique used to silence or downregulate the expression of specific genes in cells. It involves the use of short, double-stranded RNA molecules that target specific messenger RNA (mRNA) transcripts, leading to their degradation and inhibition of protein synthesis. SiRNA has become an important tool in molecular biology research and has potential therapeutic applications in the treatment of various diseases. However, designing and delivering effective siRNA molecules can be challenging, and specialized skills are required to optimize their use.
