What is siRNA?
Elbashir etal. (left sidebar): "Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) induces sequence-specific posttranscriptional gene silencing in many organisms by a process known as RNA interference (RNAi) ... 21- and 22-nt RNA fragments are the sequence-specific mediators of RNAi. The short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are generated by an RNase III–like processing reaction from long dsRNA. Chemically synthesized siRNA duplexes with overhanging 3' ends mediate efficient target RNA cleavage ..." and "... (these) 21-nucleotide siRNA duplexes specifically suppress expression of endogenous and heterologous genes in different mammalian cell(s)..."
