Translated version
RNA interference (RNAi)
A natural cellular mechanism that can be used in gene therapy. Small RNA molecules bind to specific mRNA and either destroy it or block its translation, thereby 'silencing' the gene.
Original version
RNR interferencija (RNAi)
Natūralus ląstelės mechanizmas, kurį galima panaudoti genų terapijoje. Mažos RNR molekulės prisijungia prie specifinės iRNR ir ją sunaikina arba blokuoja jos transliaciją, taip „nutildydamos“ geną.
