RNA interference (RNAi) offers a fast and easy system to study gene functions. However, the traditionally used small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) can exhibit pronounced and problematic off-target effects.
RNA interference (RNAi) is a widely applied method, offering a fast and easy system to study gene functions. In this talk, we will take a look at the technology of endoribonuclease-prepared siRNAs (esiRNA) to overcome the limitations of RNAi and show the advantages over standard siRNAs.
We demonstrate how this technology is used in various research fields such as stem cell biology, cancer, and cell biology, and evolutionary and developmental biology. Demonstrated uses include both in vitro and in vivo applications, from single-gene studies to genome-wide screens.
This webinar is for anyone interested in RNAi, whether you are an academic researcher or a researcher in R&D.
