Question

Would a double stranded RNA derived from an intron be able to induce RNA interference? Briefly explain.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The double stranded RNA are usually small interfering RNA's and cannot induce RNA interference due to the change in flexible characteristics . In order to induce RNA interference more rigidity of the double stranded RNAs would be required .

Thus a double stranded RNA derived from intron would not be able to induce RNA interference .
