RNAi在害虫防治中的脱靶效应及其规避策略
Off-target effects and mitigation strategies of RNA interference in pest control
摘要
Abstract
RNA interference(RNAi),as a precise gene-silencing technology,has shown great potential for application in sustainable pest management.However,the biosafety risks posed non-target organ-isms by RNAi off-target effects have become a major constraint on its widespread application.This review systematically summarizes the molecular mechanisms underlying RNAi off-target effects,classi-fying them into sequence-specific and sequence-independent categories.These mechanisms involve sequence similarity,base-pairing characteristics,gene transcription levels,small interfering RNA(siRNA)/double-stranded RNA(dsRNA),microRNA(miRNA),and the loading fidelity of the RNA-induced silencing complex(RISC).The key factors influencing off-target effects,including dsRNA structural features,species differences,and dsRNA delivery methods,are also summarized.In addition,current mitigation strategies,such as optimizing dsRNA design,chemically modifying siRNA,and applying off-target prediction software and webbased evaluation tools,are discussed.This review pro-vides a theoretical basis for the safe application of RNAi technology in pest control.关键词
