The specifics of small interfering RNA specificity [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003 The discovery of transgene silencing in plants and double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) interference in the worm Caenorhabditis elegans has led to the latest revolution in molecular biology, RNA interference (RNAi). Over 10 years ago it was noted that several transgenic plant lines each containing the same ectopic transgene not only failed to be expressed but ...

Oligonucleotide Therapeutics: From Discovery and Development to Patentability
Pharmaceutics, 2022 Following the first proof of concept of using small nucleic acids to modulate gene expression, a long period of maturation led, at the end of the last century, to the first marketing authorization of an oligonucleotide-based therapy.

Design of Small Interfering RNAs for Antiviral Applications [PDF]
, 2011 RNA interference (RNAi) is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism for sequence-specific target RNA degradation in animals and plants, which plays an essential role in gene regulation. In addition, it is believed to function as a defense against viruses and transposons. In recent years, RNAi has become a widely used approach for studying gene function by

Rotavirus gene silencing by small interfering RNAs [PDF]
EMBO reports, 2002 RNA interference is an evolutionarily conserved double‐stranded RNA‐triggered mechanism for suppressing gene expression. Rotaviruses, the leading cause of severe diarrhea in young children, are formed by three concentric layers of protein, from which the spike protein VP4 projects.

Delivering Small Interfering RNA for Novel Therapeutics [PDF]
, 2008 The gene silencing capability of RNA interference (RNAi) is being used to study individual gene's biological function and role in biochemical pathways. However, the efficacy of RNAi depends upon efficient delivery of the intermediates of RNAi, small interfering RNA (siRNA) oligonucleotides.

No two without three: Modelling dynamics of the trio RNA virus-defective interfering genomes-RNA satellite [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Almost all viruses, regardless of their genomic material, produce defective viral genomes (DVG) as an unavoidable byproduct of their error-prone replication. Defective interfering (DI) elements are a subgroup of DVGs that have been shown to interfere with the replication of the wild-type (WT) virus.

cd26 Knockdown Negatively Affects Porcine Parthenogenetic Preimplantation Embryo Development
Animals, 2022 cd26 is ubiquitously distributed in the body, particularly in the endothelial and epithelial cells, with the highest expression in the kidney, liver, and small intestine. In humans, cd26 serves as a marker for the embryo implantation phase.
