A central issue in molecular biology is understanding the regulatory mechanisms that control gene expression. The recent flood of genomic and postgenomic data opens the way for co...
Background: siRNAs are small RNAs that serve as sequence determinants during the gene silencing process called RNA interference (RNAi). It is well know that siRNA efficiency is cr...
