RNA interference technology
RNA interference (RNAi) is a cellular mechanism that inhibits gene expression by suppressing gene transcription or activating RNA degradation. This mechanism was discovered in plants in 1998 by Andrew Fire and Craig Mello. Today, this phenomenon can be observed in almost all eukaryotes, including protozoa, flies, nematodes, insects, parasites, and mammals.
