Patent attributes
The present invention provides an RNA interference induction element containing a nucleotide sequence selected from among the nucleotide sequences (a) to (c) below: (a) a nucleotide sequence containing SEQ ID NO:1 or a sequence complementary thereto; (b) a nucleotide sequence containing at least 15 continuous nucleotides present in the nucleotide sequence (a) above, and possessing RNA interference induction potential; (c) a nucleotide sequence having a homology of at least 70% to any one of the nucleotide sequences (a) and (b) above, and possessing RNA interference induction potential. Using the RNA interference induction element of the present invention, it is easily possible to knock down a desired target gene, and to produce a siRNA for a desired target gene.
