A recurring theme in the way that many pharmaceutical companies approach new technologies is that they are initially extremely enthusiastic, perhaps excessively so, but then subsequently overreact in the opposite direction, abandoning them when the first bumps in the road come along.

Structural domains in RNAi [PDF]
Structural and biochemical studies have begun to elucidate the pathway of RNA silencing that leads to the formation of the RISC complex. The outstanding feature of this pathway is the precise recognition and processing of double‐stranded RNA. We present a review of recent structures that illustrate the molecular mechanisms contributing to these two ...

Application of Exogenous dsRNAs-induced RNAi in Agriculture: Challenges and Triumphs
In recent years, RNA interference (RNAi) machinery has widely been explored by plant biologists for its potential applications in disease management, plant development, and germplasm improvement.

The NS3 protein of rice hoja blanca virus suppresses RNA silencing in mammalian cells [PDF]
The NS3 protein of the tenuivirus rice hoja blanca virus (RHBV) has previously been shown to represent the viral RNA interference (RNAi) suppressor and is active in both plant and insect cells by binding short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in vitro.

Antiviral Applications of RNAi [PDF]
RNA interference is a natural mechanism by which small interfering (si)RNA operates to specifically and potently down-regulate the expression of a target gene. This down-regulation has been thought to predominantly function at the level of the messenger (m)RNA, post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS). Recently, the discovery that siRNAs can function

MicroRNAs that interfere with RNAi [PDF]
A recent study by Massirer et al. in the nematode C. elegans has shown that a family of microRNAs (miRNAs), miR-35-41, regulates the efficiency of RNA interference (RNAi), revealing a new connection between these small RNA pathways. In this commentary, we discuss the potential mechanisms for cross regulation in the miRNA and RNAi pathways and the ...

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.

Argonaute 2 Is Required for Extra-embryonic Endoderm Differentiation of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells
Summary: In mouse, although four Argonaute (AGO) proteins with partly overlapping functions in small-RNA pathways exist, only Ago2 deficiency causes embryonic lethality.

Inhibition of cd46 receptor by rnai enhances cell resistance to bvdv infection [PDF]
This study aimed to investigate the inhibition effect of CD46 on the replication of bovine viral diarrhea viruses (BVDV). BVDV causes bovine viral diarrheal mucosal disease, and prevention of BVDV infection is very important for livestock production ...
