摘要
RNA干扰(RNA interference,RNA)i是由双链RNA介导的序列特异的基因沉默现象,它在转录水平、转录后水平和翻译水平上阻断基因的表达,具有高效性和高特异性的特点.现就RNAi的两种途径:小干扰RNA和微小RNA的特点和机制作一综述.
RNA interference(RNAi)is sequence-specific gene silencing phenomena mediated by double-stranded RNA,and it can block gene expression at the level of transcription,post-transcription and translation,with high efficiency and high specificity.The characteristics and mechanisms of the two pathways of RNAi,including short interfering RNA and microRNA,are reviewed in this paper.
