RNAi

RNAi

1st Edition

Edited By Martin Latterich
December 20, 2007

One of the major recent discoveries in molecular and cellular biology is that small double-stranded RNA molecules selectively turn off gene expression in all types of cell, a phenomenon known as RNA silencing. This discovery led to the development of RNA interference (known as RNAi) as a powerful ...
