siRNAs can also interfere with transcription
There is growing evidence that siRNAs can also inhibit the transcription of genes ...

siRNA: Small Inhibitory RNA; a.k.a. 'RNAi'. See 'RNAi'.

Slot blot: Similar to a dot blot, but the analyte is put onto the membrane using a slot-shaped template.

The RNAi (RNA interference) construct , which produces a dsRNA, is introduced into the plant genome via Agrobacterium mediated transformation. Subsequent cleavage of the dsRNA produces small interfering RNA's (siRNA) leading to degredation of the ...
