ChildrenBackground: Argonautes (AGOs) are a type of protein that degrade specific messenger RNAs, consequently reducing the expression of a specific gene. These proteins consist of small, single-stranded RNA or DNA and may provide a route for detecting and ...

Argonaute proteins: potential biomarkers for human colon cancer
BMC Cancer, 2010 Background Although Argonaute proteins are considered to play important roles in stem cell self-renewal, RNA interference (RNAi) and translational regulation, relatively little is known about their functions in human disease.

A Role for ARGONAUTE in Apomixis [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 2011 Apomixis is a form of asexual reproduction in angiosperms that results in the production of viable seed from maternal tissues of the ovule in the absence of meiosis and fertilization (reviewed in [Bicknell and Koltunow, 2004][1]).
