RNA interference has potential applications in biotechnology and medicine, except for treating diseases characterized by genes that are not expressed.

<h3>What is RNA interference?</h3>

RNA interference (RNAi) or post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) is a conserved biological response to double-stranded RNA that confers resistance to both endogenous parasites and exogenous pathogen nucleic acids, encoding proteins regulates the expression of genes.  

<h3>What are the advantages of RNAi?</h3>
  • RNA interference is a natural process involved in the regulation of protein synthesis and immunity.
  • One of the advantages of RNAi technology is the rapid development of effective targeted drugs to control tumor growth. Therefore, cancer is one of the prime targets for RNAi-based therapy due to its high relationship with gene expression and cell proliferation.

Which of the processes are coupled (i.e. LINKED) in prokaryotic organisms but uncoupled (i.e. UNLINKED) in eukaryotic organisms?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Transcription & translation (Ans. A)

Explanation:

Prokaryotic organisms do not have membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus, thus the process of transcription & translation occurs in the cytoplasm. Also because of the need for rapid life cycle, the mRNA molecules start to be made, & their ribosomes are ready to start making proteins more rapidly than Eukaryote, thus the process of the couple is quicker.

In eukaryotic organisms, transcription process start (happens) inside the nucleus of the cell and translation process can't start until the mRNA is transported out from the nucleus into the cytoplasm.
