Short double-stranded RNA induces transcriptional gene silencing in human cancer cells in the absence of DNA methylation
&
Abstract
Double-stranded RNA molecules targeted to gene promoter regions can induce transcriptional gene silencing in a DNA cytosine methylation–dependent manner in plants (RNA-dependent DNA methylation). Whether a similar mechanism exists in mammalian systems is a vital and controversial issue.
