In a recent study published in Nature Communications, a group of researchers explored how Death Induced by Survival gene Elimination (DISE) through the analysis of ribonucleic acid (RNA)-induced ...
The discovery of siRNA and its role in RNAi was a groundbreaking finding in the field of molecular biology. In 1998, Andrew Fire and Craig Mello published a seminal paper describing the phenomenon of ...
RNA interference (RNAi) is a type of posttranscriptional genetic regulation that occurs naturally in the cytoplasm to protect the cell against excess and foreign RNAs. Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), an ...
circRNA, circular RNA; dsRNA, double-stranded RNA; lncRNA, long non-coding RNA; mRNA, messenger RNA; miRNA, microRNA; ncRNA, non-coding RNA; pre-miRNA, precursor ...
What are Micro-RNAs (miRNAs)? Micro-RNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small, non-coding RNA molecules that play a crucial role in regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. These tiny ...
RNA interference using small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) has become a mainstay of functional gene characterization and has generated over a dozen FDA-approved therapeutics and drugs in late-stage ...
siMecA-AGO2 complex inhibits the translation of the mecA gene which encodes the penicillin-binding protein 2a (PBP2a), a protein at the heart of the drug-resistance phenotype in MRSA. By reducing ...
