RNA interference: learning gene knock-down from cell physiology
<p>Summary</p> <p>Over the past decade RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a natural mechanism for silencing gene expression. This ancient cellular antiviral response can be exploited to allow specific inhibition of the function of any chosen target gene. RNAi is proving to be a...
