In many species, introduction of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) induces potent and specific gene silencing, a phenomenon called RNA interference or RNAi. The apparently widespread nature of RNAi in eukaryotes, ranging from trypanosome to mouse, has sparked great interest from both applied and fundamental standpoints, Here we review the technical improvements being made to increase the experimental potential of this technique. We also discuss recent advances in uncovering the proteins that act during the RNAi process, discoveries that have revealed enticing links between transposition, transgene silencing and RNAi.
