FORWARD AND UNBIASED RNA-INTERFERENCE SCREEN [PDF]
, 2021 RNA-interference (Fire et al. 1998) is a popular ‘reverse-genetics’ screening strategy applied in Caenorhabditis elegans. Genome-wide RNAi screens are presently carried using RNAi feeding libraries.

Nanocircular RNAs for RNA interference [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Symposium Series, 2008 We designed and synthesized dumbbell-shaped nanocircular RNAs for RNA interference applications, which consist of a stem and two loops(1). RNA dumbbells are specifically recognized and cleaved by the human Dicer enzyme, and are thus transformed into double-stranded RNA in cells, although this RNA is resistant to degradation in serum.

A fungal Argonaute interferes with RNA interference [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2018 Small RNA (sRNA)-mediated gene silencing phenomena, exemplified by RNA interference (RNAi), require a unique class of proteins called Argonautes (AGOs). An AGO protein typically forms a protein-sRNA complex that contributes to gene silencing using the loaded sRNA as a specificity determinant. Here, we show that MoAGO2, one of the three AGO genes in the

Viruses, 2020 The mosquito antiviral response has mainly been studied in the context of arthropod-borne virus (arbovirus) infection in female mosquitoes. However, in nature, both female and male mosquitoes are frequently infected with insect-specific viruses (ISVs ...

Delivery of RNA Interference [PDF]
Cell Cycle, 2006 Over the last few years, RNA Interference (RNAi), a naturally occurring mechanism of gene regulation conserved in plant and mammalian cells, has opened numerous novel opportunities for basic research across the field of biology. While RNAi has helped accelerate discovery and understanding of gene functions, it also has great potential as a therapeutic ...

Tudor-SN Promotes Early Replication of Dengue Virus in the Aedes aegypti Midgut
iScience, 2020 Summary: Diseases caused by mosquito-borne viruses have been on the rise for the last decades, and novel methods aiming to use laboratory-engineered mosquitoes that are incapable of carrying viruses have been developed to reduce pathogen transmission ...

RNA interference, growth and differentiation appear normal in African trypanosomes lacking Tudor staphylococcal nuclease. [PDF]
, 2010 Ribonucleases play important roles in the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. The Dicer endonuclease converts double-stranded (ds)RNA into small interfering (si)RNA and the Slicer endonuclease, as a component of the RNA induced silencing complex (RISC ...

RNA interference targets arbovirus replication in Culicoides cells [PDF]
, 2013 Arboviruses are transmitted to vertebrate hosts by biting arthropod vectors such as mosquitoes, ticks and midges. These viruses replicate in both arthropods and vertebrates and are thus exposed to different antiviral responses in these organisms.

Using RNA interference to identify genes required for RNA interference [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2002 RNA interference (RNAi) is a phenomenon in which double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) silences endogenous gene expression. By injecting pools of dsRNAs into Caenorhabditis elegans , we identified a dsRNA that acts as a potent suppressor of the RNAi mechanism.
