RNA interference-mediated co-transcriptional gene silencing in fission yeast [PDF]
, 2012 In the last decade or so, RNA interference (RNAi) has gained unanticipated recognition in the fields of RNA biology and gene regulation. It exists in a wide variety of eukaryotic organisms, and various forms of RNAi are involved in diverse biological ...

Visible gland constantly traces virus-induced gene silencing in cotton
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 A virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) system was established to induce endogenous target gene silencing by post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS), which is a powerful tool for gene function analysis in plants.

MIGS as a Simple and Efficient Method for Gene Silencing in Rice
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 MiRNA-induced gene silencing (MIGS) technology is a special kind of RNA interference technology that uses miR173 to mediate the production of trans-acting siRNA (ta-siRNA) to achieve target gene silencing.

The RNA Polymerase II-associated factor 1 complex represses small-RNA-mediated heterochromatin formation and gene silencing [PDF]
, 2015 RNAi interference (RNAi) is a highly conserved regulatory mechanism employed by almost all Eukaryotes. With RNAi organisms can modulate the expression of endogenous genes and protect the integrity and identity of their genomes.

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2000 Nicotiana benthamiana plants expressing Brome mosaic virus (BMV) p2 protein complemented replication of RNAs1+3 but, surprisingly, supported little or no replication of RNA-2. Despite this, the p2 transgenic plants were able to support systemic migration

Splayed : a chromatin remodeler regulating tissue specific gene silencing and developmental timing [PDF]
, 2014 A number of mechanisms that contribute to epigenetic regulation of gene expression have been described in plants. The concert actions of these mechanisms contribute to proper patterning of gene expression within organs and tissues, therefore insuring ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...
