Abstract
|
:
|
This book is useful for understanding the essential methods for developing therapeutic applications of ribozymes to disease genes. Detailed protocols are used to design, synthesize and apply ribozymes to knock out disease-associated genes. The primary target for ribozymes is on cancer genes, however, the application can be used for any type of gene.
