Regulatory DNA / RNA / RNAi
Regulatory DNA, RNA, and RNA interference (RNAi) constitute fundamental components of gene expression regulation, orchestrating intricate cellular processes essential for organismal development and homeostasis. These elements govern the activation or suppression of genes, influencing various physiological functions and phenotypic outcomes. Understanding the mechanisms by which regulatory DNA sequences, RNA molecules, and RNAi pathways modulate gene expression is paramount in unraveling the complexities of cellular regulation. This introduction sets the stage for exploring the dynamic interplay between regulatory elements and gene expression, shedding light on the molecular mechanisms underlying biological diversity and disease pathogenesis.
