Various gene silencing technologies like siRNA, miRNA, ribozymes, DNAzymes have shown promise as therapeutics agents against viral diseases. RNAi-based drugs against viruses such as ebola virus ...
siRNA spreads throughout the plant ... 2006). The mRNA targets of miRNA can be determined by using bioinformatics methods and bioassays for monitoring the amounts of target mRNA.
View Full Profile. Learn about our Editorial Policies. The natural RNAi mechanism can be directed by either short interfering RNA (siRNA) or microRNA (miRNA). 1 There are four key steps in the RNAi ...
miRNA* duplexes by Dicer. Dicer also processes long dsRNA molecules into small interfering RNA (siRNA) duplexes. Only one strand of the miRNA:miRNA* duplex or the siRNA duplex is preferentially ...
