Small RNA sequences can regulate gene expression, most commonly by silencing genes.
RNA is stable, survives digestion and can impact gene expression in mammals that ingest it.
The impact can be passed on to future generations.
Genetic modification introduces new DNA combinations and mutations, which increase the likelihood that harmful regulatory RNA will be accidentally produced.
