Of the following choices, which would you suspect is most efficient at changing gene expression through RNAi? SS RNA that is complementary to the gene you wish to silence DS RNA that includes the gene sequence you wish to silence SS RNA that is identical in sequence to the mRNA you wish to silence DS DNA that includes the gene you wish to silence SS DNA that is complementary to the gene you wish to silence
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
