RNA silencing movement in plants

Biology of the Cell, 2008
Higher eukaryotes have developed a mechanism of sequence‐specific RNA degradation which is known as RNA silencing. In plants and some animals, similar to the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, RNA silencing is a non‐cell‐autonomous event. Hence, silencing initiation in one or a few cells leads progressively to the sequence‐specific suppression of ...

Cytosine methylation is associated with RNA silencing in silenced plants but not with systemic and transitive RNA silencing through grafting

Gene, 2007
RNA silencing is often associated with methylation of the target gene. The DNA methylation level of transgenes was investigated in post-transcriptionally silenced or non-silenced Nicotiana benthamiana carrying either the 5' region (200 or 400 bp) or the entire region of the coat protein gene (CP, including the 3' non-translated region) of Sweet potato ...

The silence of the ribosomal RNA genes

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2005
Over the past decade emerging evidence has indicated that epigenetic factors control and regulate nuclear processes. The genes encoding ribosomal RNA (rRNA) represent an ideal model to study how epigenetics and chromatin can modulate gene expression.

RNA silencing: no mercy for viruses?

Immunological Reviews, 2004
Summary:  ‘RNA silencing’ is a highly conserved mechanism leading to suppression of gene expression through nucleotide sequence‐specific interactions that are mediated by 21–24 nucleotide‐long RNAs. This process was first discovered as an unexpected consequence of transgenesis in plants, and similarly, it was subsequently identified in animals as an ...

RNA Silencing in Plants

2013
The discovery of RNA silencing has greatly expanded the understanding of gene regulation. Present in nearly all Eukaryotes, RNA silencing has emerged as a potent method to regulate gene expression at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels.

RNA-triggered gene silencing

Trends in Genetics, 1999
Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) has recently been shown to trigger sequence-specific gene silencing in a wide variety of organisms, including nematodes, plants, trypanosomes, fruit flies and planaria; meanwhile an as yet uncharacterized RNA trigger has been shown to induce DNA methylation in several different plant systems.
