What Does CISS Stand For?
CISS stands for Chromosome In Situ Suppression
CISS, or Chromosome In Situ Suppression, refers to a technique utilized in molecular biology for the targeted suppression of gene expression within specific chromosomal regions. This method allows researchers to study the functional implications of genes by effectively reducing their activity while preserving the chromosomal context. CISS aids in understanding gene interactions, regulatory mechanisms, and the overall impact of gene suppression on cellular processes.
