L'inactivation spécifique d'un ARNm [ARN messager] par un petit ARN interférent (siARN) pouvant s'apparier avec l'ARNm. 5, record 1, French, - interf%C3%A9rence%20ARN
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
L'interférence d'ARN est un mécanisme de régulation post-transcriptionnel physiologique très conservé dans l'évolution, conduisant à l'inhibition de l'expression génique. L'interférence est due au clivage des ARN double brin dans la cellule par des petites molécules d'ARN [petits ARN interférents] qui ciblent des séquences complémentaires et entraînent la destruction de l'ARN sous l'effet d'un complexe comprenant une ribonucléase. 1, record 1, French, - interf%C3%A9rence%20ARN
