siRNA Off-Target Effects Can Be Reduced at Concentrations That Match Their Individual Potency

Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are routinely used to reduce mRNA levels for a specific gene with the goal of studying its function. Several studies have demonstrated that siRNAs are not always specific and can have many off-target effects. The 3′ UTRs of off-target mRNAs are often enriched in seque...
