RNA silencing — Unter RNA Interferenz (RNAi, auch RNA Silencing) versteht man einen natürlichen Mechanismus in eukaryotischen Zellen, der die Genexpression einzelner Gene hemmt. Bei dieser Genregulation ist immer RNA als zielerkennendes Molekül beteiligt. Nach… … Deutsch Wikipedia
RNA interference — (RNAi) is a mechanism that inhibits gene expression at the stage of translation or by hindering the transcription of specific genes. RNAi targets include RNA from viruses and transposons (significant for some forms of innate immune response), and … Wikipedia
RNA-induced silencing complex — RNA induced silencing complex, or RISC, is a multi protein siRNA complex which cleaves (incoming viral) dsRNA and binds short antisense RNA strands which are then able to bind complementary strands. When it finds the complementary strand, it… … Wikipedia

RNA — For other uses, see RNA (disambiguation). A hairpin loop from a pre mRNA. Highlighted are the nucleobases (green) and the ribose phosphate backbone (blue). Ribonucleic acid (English pronunciation: /raɪbɵ.njuːˌkleɪ.ɨk ˈæsɪd/), or RNA, is one of… … Wikipedia
RNA polymerase — RNAP from T. aquaticus pictured during elongation. Portions of the enzyme were made transparent so as to make the path of RNA and DNA more clear. The magnesium ion (yellow) is located at the enzyme active site. RNA polymerase (RNAP or RNApol) is… … Wikipedia
RNA-induced transcriptional silencing — (RITS) is a form of RNA interference by which short RNA molecules such as small interfering RNA (siRNA) trigger the downregulation of transcription of a particular gene or genomic region. This is usually accomplished by posttranslational… … Wikipedia
RNA interference — n a posttranscriptional genetic mechanism of various eukaryotes (as plants, fungi, nematodes, and mammals) which suppresses gene expression and in which double stranded RNA cleaved into small fragments initiates the degradation of a complementary … Medical dictionary
