    Put the following steps of gene silencing by small interfering RNAs in the correct order: microRNA is folded and processed in the nucleus RISC binds to an mRNA molecule with bases complementary to the guide strand microRNA is transported into the cytoplasm microRNA is transcribed Argonaute protein selects one strand to act as the guide strand mRNA transcription is inhibited DICER cuts the microRNA into short segments (~21 nucleotides long)

  • As indicated in the image below, miRNAs usually have imperfect base pairing with their target mRNAs,...

    As indicated in the image below, miRNAs usually have imperfect base pairing with their target mRNAs, which leads to translational inhibition (the RISC complex is large, and won't let ribosomes through). On the other hand, siRNAs produced from longer double stranded RNA molecules (e.g. viruses), usually show perfect binding to their target mRNAs, which leads to mRNA degradation by the RISC complex. In 100 words or fewer explain why these two types of inhibitory ncRNAs differ in their mode of...
