摘要
Short interfering double-stranded RNAs (siRNAs) expressed under the control of an RNA polymerase I promoter system were used to target gene expression of influenza A and West Nile virus. Decreased RNA and protein expression was induced in a sequence-specific manner-reducing sequence complementarity from 21 to 17 nucleotides abrogated the siRNA effect. Reduced M-2 expression resulted in a decrease in total and the expression of single viral genes, global viral gene expression, as a potential antiviral treatment, and as a genetic tool for viruses whose genomes are difficult to manipulate.
