Abstract
Eight years ago, Craig Mello, Andrew Fire, and their coworkers provided the first demonstration that double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) triggers the gene-silencing technique that we now call RNA interference (RNAi). For this landmark discovery, Mello and Fire are honored with this year's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
