摘要:
The present invention relates to transcriptional gene silencing (TGS) in mammalian, including human, cells that is mediated by small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules. The present invention also relates to a double stranded nucleic acid that directs methylation of histones associated with target genes that produce low copy promoter-specific RNA. It has been found that siRNAs can be used to direct methylation of histones in mammalian, including human, cells.

The present invention relates to transcriptional gene silencing (TGS) in mammalian, including human, cells that is mediated by small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules. The present invention also relates to a method for directing histone and/or DNA methylation in mammalian, including human, cells. It has been found that siRNAs can be used to direct methylation of DNA in mammalian, including human, cells.
