This question has five parts. Answer all parts. (4) What are the benefits and disadvantages of using an RNA-silencing (RNA interference) technology for altering gene expression? (2) Give an example of an alternative technology that you could use for similar applications. State when you would use this over RNAi. (4) Describe how you would design an RNAi construct for efficient suppression of a target gene by posttranscriptional gene silencing (4) What are the functions of the different components of the RNAi construct designed in C (2) Why does the construct decscribed in C cause efficient posttranscriptional silencing of the target gene
