Interferencia por ARN

Relacionado con el ARN existe en todas las células un mecanismo de silenciamiento post-transcripcional de genes específicos, denominado ribotransferencia, interferencia por ARN o RNAi. Ésta es ejercida concretamente por moléculas de ARN que, siendo complementarias a un ARN mensajero, conducen a la degradación de éste. Debe entonces distinguirse entre interferencia por ARN (RNAi), mecanismo biológico o técnica experimental que lo aprovecha, y ARN interferente, molécula de ARN que ejerce interferencia por ARN, y puede ser de varios tipos: siRNA, miRNA o piRNA.
RNA interference is a process of sequence-specific post transcriptional gene silencing in cells initiated by a double-stranded (ds) polynucleotide, usually a dsRNA, that is homologous in sequence to a portion of a targeted messenger RNA (mRNA). RNA interference is emerging a promising technology for modifying expression of specific genes in plant and animal cells, and is therefore expected to provide useful tools to treat a wide range of diseases and disorders amenable to treatment by modification of endogenous gene expression.
