| '''Homework''': Write all Series3 Protocols as Materials & Methods. Assignment described at [[BISC_219/F10: Assignment_Series3_ Materials and Methods]] ; Read the original 1998 paper by Fire and Mello published in ''Nature'' '''391''': 806-811 (Feb.19 1998) at [http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/35888 doi:10.1038/35888] ; read a 2006 review on RNAi by Yigit ''et.al'' found at [http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2006.09.033 doi:10.1016/j.cell.2006.09.033], and the associated perspective, [http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2006.11.004 doi:10.1016/j.cell.2006.11.004]], both published in ''Cell''. These articles provide background information on how the mechanism of RNAi was worked out experimentally. Also read a published journal article by Green et al. (2009) Impact of Cigarette Smoke Exposure on Innate Immunity: A Caenorhabditis elegans Model. PLoS ONE 4(8): e6860, found at [http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0006860 doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0006860], that uses reverse genetics to figure out gene function.  There are questions to guide your reading found at:[[BISC_219:Questions to Guide Your Reading 2]] . Be prepared to discuss those questions in Lab 9.
