ABSTRACT:
Double-stranded RNA of about 19 to about 25 nucleotides in length capable of regulating gene expression by RNA interference is provided. Such double-stranded RNA are particularly useful for treating disease or conditions associated with a target mRNA or gene. Methods of manufacture and methods of use of the double-stranded RNA are also provided.
