$RNA$ interference involves silencing of specific mRNA due to a complementary . . . . . . molecule that binds to and prevents translation of the mRNA.
A
ss-$DNA$
B
ds-$RNA$
C
ss-$RNA$
D
ds-$DNA$

Solution

(B) $RNA$ interference $(RNAi)$ is a biological process in which $RNA$ molecules inhibit gene expression or translation by neutralizing targeted $mRNA$ molecules. This process is initiated by double-stranded $RNA$ $(ds-RNA)$,which binds to the complementary $mRNA$ sequence,thereby preventing its translation into protein.

The toxin proteins isolated from $Bacillus$ $thuringiensis$,coded by which of the following genes would control cotton bollworms and corn borer,respectively?
A
$cryIAc$ and $cryIIAb$
B
$cryIAc$ and $cryIIIAb$
C
$cryIAc$ and $cryIAb$
D
$cryIIAb$ and $cryIAc$

Solution

(C) The toxin proteins produced by $Bacillus$ $thuringiensis$ $(Bt)$ are encoded by specific $cry$ genes.
Specifically,the gene $cryIAc$ is used to control cotton bollworms.
The gene $cryIAb$ is used to control corn borers.
Therefore,the correct pair is $cryIAc$ and $cryIAb$.
