Gene silencing: Researchers have paved the way for functional analysis of non-protein-coding genes
Wed, 2011-08-24 15:15 — Anonymous
Our genome contains numerous genes which do not code for the production of proteins. Many of them are transcribed particularly frequently in cancer cells. Scientists have now found a way to study the function of such genes.
