Definition from
MedicineNet, Inc.:
Gene silencing: A mechanism by which cells shut down large sections of chromosomal DNA. Gene silencing is done by incorporating the DNA to be silenced into a form of DNA called heterochromatin that is already silent.
The process of gene silencing is important for the differentiation of many different types of cells.
Example sentences:
Evidence is emerging that geminiviruses and plant pararetroviruses can interact with the gene silencing system either from introduced DNA constructs or during viral pathogenesis. Some observations suggest there are complex relationships between DNA viral activity, transcriptional and post-transcriptional gene silencing mechanisms. (biotech-info.net)
The biggest challenges in the field at the moment are understanding two things: how does DNA methylation participate in gene silencing (and that includes what molecules target the DNA methylation to these promoter regions), and why is the cancer cell doing this? (The Thomson Corporation)
In 2005, Pikaard and his collaborators published research showing that the major function of Pol IV is to generate siRNAs, thereby singling out this RNA polymerase as a potential player in gene silencing. (ScienceDaily LLC)

heshtja e gjeneve
Definition from
NCBI:
Heshtja e gjeneve është procesi i ndërprerjes ose i ndrydhjes së shprehjes së një gjeni, në nivelin e transkriptimit ose të përkthimit.
Example sentences:
Po behen tentativa per kurimin e semundjeve si te Parkinson-it dhe te Hantington-it duke perdorur terapine gjenike me heshtje te gjeneve me ane te copezave te shkurtera te ARN qe jane quantur siARN (ARN nderhyresa) qe kane aftesi te futen ne mes te enzimave ose faktoreve te ndryshem dhe te bllokojne shfaqjen e tyre.
