Suggest a source of complementary RNA introduced into target cell that can intitiate RNAi.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding RNA Interference (RNAi):** - RNA interference is a biological process in which RNA molecules inhibit gene expression or translation, effectively silencing targeted genes. This mechanism is often utilized in biotechnology to create pest-resistant plants. 2. **Identifying the Role of Complementary RNA:** - In RNAi, the introduction of complementary RNA into a target cell is crucial. This complementary RNA can form double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) with the target mRNA, leading to the degradation of the mRNA and preventing protein synthesis. ...
