New strains for tissue-specific RNAi studies in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>

2018-03-15

Abstract excerpt

RNA interference is a powerful tool for dissecting gene function. In Caenorhabditis elegans , ingestion of double stranded RNA causes strong, systemic knockdown of target genes. Further insight into gene function can be revealed by tissue-specific RNAi techniques. Currently available tissue-specific C. elegans strains rely on rescue of RNAi function in a desired tissue or cell in an otherwise RNAi deficient gene...
