Answer:
Delivered small RNAs can inhibit protein A production through the RNA interference (RNAi) mechanism, and thus impairs angiogenesis
Explanation:
The pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A is a protease enzyme involved in the formation of new blood vessels by increasing insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) bioavailability. Moreover, small RNAs (<200 nucleotides in length, generally 18 to 30 nucleotides) are non-coding RNA molecules that function in RNA silencing through the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. Small RNAs are widely used in molecular biology laboratories because they can be delivered into specific cells in order to silence target mRNAs such as, in this case, the mRNA encoding protein A, by complementary base pairing and thereby inducing translational repression. In consequence, mRNAs complementary to delivered small RNAs are silenced through RNAi pathways, i.e., by cleavage of the target mRNA and/or mRNA destabilization.
Answer:
Ethical concerns about the development and use of biotechnology include all of the following except <em><u>concern about the development of new weapons.</u></em>
Hello! ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate, and ADP stands for adenosine diphosphate. The difference between the two molecules is that ATP has three phosphate group, and ADP has two phosphate groups. ATP is an unstable molecule, which means it will release energy when it becomes reduced to ADP, meaning it will break off one of its phosphate groups. Hope this helps, and let me know if you have any questions! ^-^
