Researchers discover gene silencing DNA enzyme that target single molecule
Updated : 2 years, 10 months ago IST
A DNA enzyme, or DNAzyme, has been created by researchers at the University of California, Irvine that can identify between two RNA strands inside a cell and cut the one linked to the sickness while leaving the healthy strand unharmed. This ground-breaking "gene silencing" method may fundame
