Gene Silencing
Gene Silencing: describes the epigenetic regulation of a gene, at the level of transcription or translation, to prevent gene expression. Mechanisms include DNA methylation, histone modification and RNAi. Methods to silence genes are exploited by researchers to study gene function, and for the development of therapeutics for diseases including cancer, infectious diseases and neurodegenerative disorders.
