gene silencing

These viruses have been used in the development of viral gene silencing studies.

There are several more terms related to specific topics of gene silencing:

In cancer, the dynamics of genetic and epigenetic gene silencing are very different.

Methylation at the promoter region is associated with gene silencing.

It was discovered in petunia as a post-transcriptional gene silencing measure.

Both transcriptional and post-transcriptional gene silencing are used to regulate genes.

The history of gene silencing research shows once again that plants offer outstanding experimental systems for elucidating general biological principles.

This may weaken the effects of gene silencing mechanisms that occurred prior to the methylation.

These heterochromatic marks are important in telomere proximal gene silencing.

These multiple silencing triggers lead to highly specific and effective gene silencing.

The A. aeolicus is also known as one of the few bacterial species capable of doing gene silencing.

In both of these cases, the shRNA leads to target gene silencing.

Gene silencing experiments in mouse models have shown that when the expression of mHtt is reduced, symptoms improve.

The P19 protein is a pathogenicity factor and also is a suppressor of gene silencing.

Safety of gene silencing has now been demonstrated in the large, human-like brains of primates.

Gene silencing is a general term describing epigenetic processes of gene regulation.

In addition, mRNA-based gene silencing technologies may have therapeutic applications.

In contrast, epigenetically mediated gene silencing occurs gradually.

Methylation of DNA is a common method of gene silencing.

However, only one of the two strands, which is known as the guide strand, binds the argonaute protein and directs gene silencing.

RNA interference or gene silencing may be a new way to treat Huntington's disease.

The term gene silencing is generally used to describe the "switching off" of a gene by a mechanism other than genetic modification.

Gene silencing occurs when RNA is unable to make a protein during translation.

Paramutation may share common mechanisms with other epigenetic phenomena, such as gene silencing and genomic imprinting.

A common mechanism of post-transcriptional gene silencing is RNAi.
