Virus-derived DNA drives mosquito vector tolerance to arboviral infection
Mosquitoes tolerate long-lasting viral infections, which makes them efficient vectors for human viral diseases. Here, the authors show that the tolerance of Aedesmosquitoes to infection with dengue or chikungunya viruses depends on the production of ...

An essential role of KREPB4 in RNA editing and structural integrity of the editosome in Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
RNA editing in the sleeping sickness parasite Trypanosoma brucei remodels mitochondrial transcripts by the addition and deletion of uridylates as specified by guide RNAs.

RNA interference is ineffective as a routine method for gene silencing in chick embryos as monitored by fgf8 silencing. [PDF]
The in vivo accessibility of the chick embryo makes it a favoured model system for experimental developmental biology. Although the range of available techniques now extends to miss-expression of genes through in ovo electroporation, it remains difficult

Role of RNA Interference (RNAi) in the Moss Physcomitrella patens [PDF]
RNA interference (RNAi) is a mechanism that regulates genes by either transcriptional (TGS) or posttranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS), required for genome maintenance and proper development of an organism.

RNA interference in marine and freshwater sponges [PDF]
Background: The marine sponge Tethya wilhelma and the freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri are emerging model organisms to study evolution, gene regulation, development, and physiology in non-bilaterian animal systems. Thus far, functional methods (i.e.,

Background: Inflammatory mediator prostaglandin E2–prostaglandin E2 receptor EP3 (PTGER3) signaling is critical for tumor-associated angiogenesis, tumor growth, and chemoresistance. However, the mechanism underlying these effects in ovarian cancer is not

A genome‐scale screen reveals context‐dependent ovarian cancer sensitivity to miRNA overexpression
Large‐scale molecular annotation of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) indicates remarkable heterogeneity in the etiology of that disease. This diversity presents a significant obstacle against intervention target discovery.

Chromosome-wide analysis of gene function by RNA interference in the african trypanosome. [PDF]
Trypanosomatids of the order Kinetoplastida are major contributors to global disease and morbidity, and understanding their basic biology coupled with the development of new drug targets represents a critical need.
