Abstract excerpt
The biggest concern of using natural microRNAs for treating cancer is that they usually cause few phenotypic changes due to the divergent functions of their target genes. Based on the engineering principles of synthetic biology, we provided a standard platform for constructing artificial microRNAs that can target one or few specific genes and silence both protein-coding genes and long non-coding genes. To prove...
