RNA interference in protozoan parasites

15 Apr 2004

Abstract excerpt

RNA interference or RNAi is defined as the mechanism through which gene-specific, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) triggers degradation of homologous transcripts. Besides providing an invaluable tool to downregulate gene expression in a variety of organisms, it is now evident that RNAi extends its tentacles into both the nucleus and the cytoplasm and is involved in a variety of gene silencing phenomena. Here we review...
