Genetic and molecular analysis of the siRNA-mediated gene regulation

在九十年代末，我们的细胞用一种新方法来控制其物质生产的突破性发现再次证明，生物学研究人员还有意想不到的事情要发现。以圆虫为模型动物，这种被称为RNA干扰（RNAi）的新细胞途径的发现在2006年获得了诺贝尔委员会的认可，因为它在开发RNAi相关技术方面具有真正的潜力，这些技术是由被称为siRNA的小分子触发的，对生物学研究和工业非常有用。为了更好地理解这一生物学现象的细节，我们课课组将继续他以圆虫为模型，对sirna介导的基因调控进行研究。我们相信，我们的创新研究项目将有助于揭示sirna在生物学中的重要性，并有助于在研究实验室和工业中更好地利用RNAi作为一种分子技术。

In the late nineties, the breakthrough discovery of a new way that our cells use to control its materials production have proven once again that biology has yet unexpected things to be found by researchers. Using the round worm as model animal, the discovery of this new cellular pathway called RNA interference or RNAi was acknowledged by the Nobel Committee in 2006 for its real potential in the development of RNAi-related technologies triggers by small molecules called siRNA that are extremely useful for biology research and for industries. Our research group will pursue his research on siRNA-mediated gene regulation using the round worm as a model in order to better understand the details of this biological phenomenom. We believe that our innovative research program will contribute to uncover the importance of siRNAs in biology as well as helping in a better use of RNAi as a molecular technology in research laboratories and in industries.
