- mRNA is also referred to herein as the mRNA to be silenced.
- Such genes are also called target genes.
- the RNA to be silenced is an endogenous gene or a pathogen gene.

Typically, the most tolerated mismatches are in the terminal region, e.g., within 5, 4, 3, 2 or 1 nucleotide of the 5' and/or 3' end. The portion of the antisense strand that is most sensitive to mismatches is called the "seed region.” For example, in a siRNA containing a 19nt strand, some mismatches can be tolerated at position 19 (from 5' to 3').
- complementary refers to the ability of a first polynucleotide to hybridize to a second polynucleotide under certain conditions, such as stringent conditions.

其他定义
本文术语“siRNA”是一类双链RNA分子,其可以介导与其互补的靶RNA(例如mRNA,例如,编码蛋白质的基因的转录物)的沉默。siRNA通常是双链的,包括与靶RNA互补的反义链,和与该反义链互补的正义链。为方便起见,这样的mRNA在此也被称为有待被沉默的mRNA。这样的基因也称为靶基因。通常,有待被沉默的RNA是内源基因或病原体基因。另外,除了mRNA以外的RNA(例如tRNA)以及病毒RNA也可以被靶向。
术语“反义链”是指siRNA的这样一条链,所述链包含与靶序列完全、充分或基本互补的区域。术语“正义链”是指siRNA的这样一条链,所述链包括与作为在此定义的术语反义链的区域完全、充分或基本互补的区域。
术语“互补区域”是指反义链上与靶mRNA序列完全、充分或基本互补的区域。在互补区域与靶序列不完全互补的情况下,错配可以位于分子的内部或末端区域中。通常,最耐受的错配位于末端区域中,例如,在5’和/或3’端的5、4、3、2或1个核苷酸内。对错配最敏感的反义链部分被称为“种子区”。例如,在包含19nt的链的siRNA中,第19个位置(从5’向3’)可以耐受一些错配。
术语“互补”是指第一多核苷酸在某些条件例如严格条件下与第二多核苷酸杂交的能力。例如,严格条件可包括400mM NaCl、40mM PIPES pH 6.4、1mM EDTA在50℃或70℃下持续12-16小时。就满足以上相对于它们杂交的能力而言的要求来说,“互补”序列还可以包括或完全形成自非沃森-克里克碱基对和/或从非天然的以及经修饰的核苷酸形成的碱基对。此类非沃森-克里克碱基对包括但不限于G:U摇摆碱基配对或Hoogstein碱基配对。
与信使RNA(mRNA)的“至少部分互补”、“充分互补”或“基本上互补”的多核苷酸是指与感兴趣的mRNA的连续部分基本互补的多核苷酸。例如,如果序列与编码PCSK9的mRNA的非中断部分基本上互补,则多核苷酸与PCSK9mRNA的至少部分互补。在此的术语“互补”、“完全互补”、“充分互补”和“基本上互补”可以相对于siRNA的正义链与反义链之间,或siRNA试剂的反义链与靶序列之间的碱基配对使用。
