To describe:
The paramutation at the Kit locus in mice.
Introduction:
The interaction between two alleles that leads to heritable changes in one allele is called the paramutation. Paramutation generates these heritable changes without any alteration in the
To determine:
The evidence suggests that small RNA molecules play a role in paramutationat Kit locus in mice.
Introduction:
Small ribonucleic acid (RNA) is the non-coding RNA that is used to regulate the gene expression in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. There are various types of small RNA are presentthat include micro RNA, small interfering RNA, transfer RNAand so on.
