Lessons from genetics: interpreting complex phenotypes in RNAi
... Determining an RNAi phenotype will also be complicated by a potential indirect, although ‘on-target’ effect of gene silencing. A phenotype can be the result of affecting a general, essential cellular process, or affecting a process that ‘feeds’ into the one perturbed by the knockdown (Figure 1a). An ...
