The non-coding strand in double-stranded DNA. The antisense strand serves as the template for mRNA synthesis.
<molecular biology> In general the complementary strand of a coding sequence of DNA (antisense DNA) or of mRNA (antisense RNA). ... A collection of nucleotide sequences which are not templates for synthesis but yet interact with complementary sequences in other molecules thereby causing function of those molecules to be affected. ... Antisens...
(an″te-) (an´ti-sens) pertaining to the antisense strand of a nucleic acid. Antisense strand of DNA, complementary to the sense (coding) strand and serving as a template for RNA synthesis.
Nucleic acid that has a sequence exactly opposite to an mrna molecule made by the body
In general the complementary strand of a coding sequence of DNA or of mRNA. Antisense RNA hybridizes with and inactivates mRNA.
Way to turn off a gene by putting a 'reverse version' or 'mirror image' version of the gene into a cell. See marker gene. 
Type: Term Pronunciation: an′tē-sents See: antisense DNA, antisense RNA
Antisense: In molecular biology, the strand complementary to a coding sequence of a nucleic acid. Antisense DNA is the non-coding strand complementary to the coding strand in double-stranded DNA. The antisense strand serves as the template for messenger RNA (mRNA) synthesis. Antisense RNA is the non-coding strand complementary to a coding sequence ...
Complementary: an antisense compound is the mirror image of the genetic sequence that it is suppose to inactivate.
of or pertaining to a gene that is derived from RNA or complementary DNA, is inserted in reverse orientation into a strand of DNA, and is used in genetic engineering to regulate genetic expression of a trait.
