Example sentences for: rna-mediated

How can you use “rna-mediated” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Several early examples supplied the prototypes for two types of RNA-mediated gene silencing that are recognized today.

  • Interestingly, perfect or near-perfect target complementarity is associated with mRNA degradation [ 24 25 26 ] , similar to the effects of siRNA, whereas imperfect base-pairing is associated with regulation by translational inhibition [ 6 27 ] . Recently, siRNAs with imperfect match to target mRNA were observed to function as translational inhibitors [ 28 ] , suggesting that the type of 21-22 nucleotide RNA-mediated regulation may be largely determined by the quality of target complementarity.

  • The roots of RNA-mediated silencing, however, can be traced back 15 years, when a handful of botanical labs stumbled across strange cases of gene silencing in transgenic plants.

  • Up until 2002, RNAi/PTGS and miRNAs were the most avidly studied aspects of RNA-mediated gene silencing.

  • Many biologists first learned of RNA-mediated gene silencing in 1998 following the discovery, in the nematode worm
