The main function of RNA interference is to regulate gene expression at post-transcriptional level. Further reading: DNA Polymerase RNA... View Article
RNA interference blocks the translation of an mRNA and has a role to play in the regulation of protein synthesis and cellular defence. Further... View Article
RNA silencing is also called RNA interference. Here gene expression is regulated by dsRNA. Further reading: DNA Polymerase RNA Splicing... View Article
RNA interference is the process of silencing mRNA of a target gene by the complementary RNA molecule and thereby blocking the protein synthesis.... View Article
RNA interference is a cellular defence process, where the translation of mRNA is prevented by binding to a complementary dsRNA molecule. Further... View Article

The benefits of Bt crops is that it increases the yield and does not kill beneficial insects. It decreases the usage of pesticides. Further... View Article
When insects ingest the Bt toxin, it is converted into an active form due to alkaline pH in the gut. It binds to the epithelial cells of the... View Article
Bt-toxin does not kill the bacteria that produce it because it exists as protoxins, which is inactive. Once insects ingest it, it gets activated... View Article
