Molecular Genetics

RNA interference (RNAi) is a crucial biological process that regulates gene expression by targeting specific mRNA molecules for degradation. This mechanism, discovered in the late 20th century, has significant implications in molecular genetics, biotechnology, and therapeutic applications. By harnessing RNAi, scientists can develop targeted treatments for diseases, including cancer and viral infections. This overview highlights the principles of RNAi, its discovery, and its transformative impact on genetic research and medicine, backed by key resources from leading institutions and studies.
