Summary[edit]

Summary
Description Overview of RNA interference. The dicer enzymes produce siRNA from double-stranded RNA and mature miRNA from precursor miRNA. miRNA or siRNA is bound to an argonaute enzyme and an effector complex is formed, either a RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) or RITS (RNA-induced transcriptional silencing) complex. RITS affects the rate of transcription by histone and DNA methylation, whereas RISC degrades mRNA to prevent it from being translated.
