What is the identical copy of DNA?
antisense mRNA
Why template strand also called antisense?
Because it is not transcribed and coded for proteins.
Haw does antisense technology work?
Antisense technology is based on stopping the production of a protein. In order for a protein to be formed, the mRNA has to be translated (read by the ribosomes). The happens in the cytoplasm. There are stretches of nucleic acid bases called cDNA that are complimentary to specific mRNA sequences. These cDNA molecules can bind to the mRNA molecules and inactivate them. When mRNA is inactivated, it cannot be translated into a protein and a protein will not be formed. Since every protein is made by a certain mRNA, by inactivating the mRNA using cDNA molecules, the production of the protein can be stopped. This process is called mRNA silencing or antisense technology
What molecule helps code the DNA?
lets take this section of DNA ATAGCCATA DNA polymerase codes for the antisense (not mirror) strand. this would be TATCGGTAT
What's the difference btw siRNA and antisense RNA?
siRNA refers to a small interfering RNA or sometimes known as short interfering RNA or silencing RNA. It a class of double-stranded RNA molecules, 20-25 nucleotides in length, that play a variety of roles in biology. The most notable role of siRNA is its involvement in the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway, where it interferes with the expression of a specific gene.whereas Antisense RNA is a single-stranded RNA that is complementary to a messenger RNA (mRNA) strand transcribed within a cell.
What are copied from DNA?
antisense
What is the antonym of express?
antisense technology or degradation
What is the identical copy of DNA?
antisense mRNA

What has the author Stanley T Crooke written?
Stanley T. Crooke has written: 'Therapeutic applications of oligonucleotides' -- subject(s): Therapeutic use, Oligonucleotides 'Antisense Research and Application' 'Antisense Drug Technology'
Why template strand also called antisense?
Because it is not transcribed and coded for proteins.
What is the antonym of excess?
deficiency, lack, insufficiency, need, dearth
What is an asRNA?
An asRNA is an antisense RNA, a single-stranded RNA which is complemenetary to a messenger RNA strand transcribed within a cell.
How do you know if you have vascular endothelial growth factor-antisense oligonucleotide?
by the time you find out it's too late because it is in fact lethal
