that messenger RNA is being converted into protein.

这些mRNA被转变为蛋白质
Well, what if you knew

那么如果你知道了
the sequence for the messenger RNA that made insulin

合成胰岛素的mRNA的序列
and you designed another single stranded DNA or RNA molecule

并设计一段与其序列完全相反的
that was the exact opposite,

DNA或者RNA分子
or the exact compliment, I should say, of that strand?

应该说是完全互补的一段分子
So you made somehow an

这样你就合成了
anti-sense polynucleotide to the insulin gene or

胰岛素基因的反义多聚核苷酸链
some fraction of the insulin gene.

或者说胰岛素基因的片段
Well, that anti-sense strand is shown here as the red and

好的反义链在这里以红色表示
the cell is naturally making the

细胞自身会造出合成某种
blue or sense strand of messenger RNA for a particular protein.

特定的蛋白质的蓝色RNA正义链
