eIF4GI facilitates the MicroRNA-mediated gene silencing. [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that mediate post-transcriptional gene silencing by binding to complementary target mRNAs and recruiting the miRNA-containing ribonucleoprotein complexes to the mRNAs.

The Whys and Wherefores of Transitivity in Plants
Transitivity in plants is a mechanism that produces secondary small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) from a transcript targeted by primary small RNAs (sRNAs). It expands the silencing signal to additional sequences of the transcript.

Epigenetic silencing in transgenic plants
Epigenetic silencing is a natural phenomenon in which the expression of gene is regulated through modifications of DNA, RNA or histone proteins. It is a mechanism for defending host genomes against the effects of transposable element, viral infection and

A Method to Produce vsiRNAs in Plants with Cross-Kingdom Gene Silencing Capacity
Plants have evolved defense mechanisms to suppress viral transcription and replication by transcriptional and post-transcriptional gene silencing mediated by virus-derived small interfering RNAs (vsiRNAs).

Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing in Cultured Rice Cells [PDF]
Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) has been shown to occur in many transgenic dicotyledonous plants. Although transgene silencing has been documented in transgenic monocots, PTGS has been only recently described in monocotyledonous plants. To study PTGS in rice, we generated 25 transgenic rice cell lines in which the 35S-gus gene was stably ...

Transcriptional Gene Silencing (TGS) via the RNAi Machinery in HIV-1 Infections
Gene silencing via non-coding RNA, such as siRNA and miRNA, can occur at the transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and translational stages of expression.

Post-transcriptional gene silencing: Basic concepts and applications
Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS)-mediated gene silencing exploits the cellular mechanism wherein transcripts having sequence similarity to the double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) molecules present in the cell will be subjected to degradation. PTGS is closely related to natural processes such as RNA-mediated virus resistance and cross-protection in ...
