RNA interference-mediated co-transcriptional gene silencing in fission yeast [PDF]
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 ...

The RNA Polymerase II-associated factor 1 complex represses small-RNA-mediated heterochromatin formation and gene silencing [PDF]
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.

Secondary siRNAs in Plants: Biosynthesis, Various Functions, and Applications in Virology
The major components of RNA silencing include both transitive and systemic small RNAs, which are technically called secondary sRNAs. Double-stranded RNAs trigger systemic silencing pathways to negatively regulate gene expression.

RNA-Mediated Gene Silencing Signals Are Not Graft Transmissible from the Rootstock to the Scion in Greenhouse-Grown Apple Plants Malus sp. [PDF]
RNA silencing describes the sequence specific degradation of RNA targets. Silencing is a non-cell autonomous event that is graft transmissible in different plant species.

Generation of Arabidopsis early flowering plants by destruction of CLF transcripts via RNA silencing [PDF]
The control of flowering time requires activation of a cascade of successive genes which are affected by several internal and external factors. Some of these genes, such as Curly Leaf (CLF), have inhibitory effect on flowering.

Next generation sequencing for studying viruses and RNA silencing-based antiviral defense in crop plants [PDF]
The main objectives of this work have been to use next generation sequencing (NGS) and develop bioinformatics tools for plant virus diagnostics and genome reconstruction as well as for investigation of RNA silencing-based antiviral defense.

Identification of Pns6, a putative movement protein of RRSV, as a silencing suppressor
RNA silencing is a potent antiviral response in plants. As a counterdefense, most plant and some animal viruses encode RNA silencing suppressors. In this study, we showed that Pns6, a putative movement protein of Rice ragged stunt virus (RRSV), exhibited

The role of TNRC6 proteins in gene silencing [PDF]
Proteins of the GW182 family have recently emerged as key players in miRNAmediated gene silencing. They have been shown to interact with Argonaute proteins, components of the RISC and are assumed to mediate the repression in metazoa. Three paralogues are
