And you could interfere with a translation by degrading messenger RNA, for example. If you had a way to specifically chew up all the RNA molecules that are responsible for making a particular protein, you could stop it from being expressed even though your cell is trying to make it.

而你就可以通过,降解其mRNA来进行干扰,再举个例子,如果你能把表达特定蛋白的RNA,统统揪出来捣毁的话,你也能阻止这段基因表达,哪怕是你的细胞在努力表达这段基因
