The publication titled “Asymmetric RNA Duplexes Mediate RNA Interference in Mammalian Cells” highlights that the smaller 15 bp aiRNA can target a variety of genes with superior efficiency than the standard 19-21 bp siRNA. Furthermore, the new aiRNA structure can target genes more selectively with significantly less off-target effects than the standard 19-21 bp siRNA.
