Binding of small interfering RNA molecules is crucial for RNA interference suppressor activity of rice hoja blanca virus NS3 in plants [PDF]
The NS3 protein of rice hoja blanca tenuivirus represents a viral suppressor of RNAi that sequesters small interfering (si)RNAs in vitro. To determine whether this siRNA binding property is the critical determinant for the suppressor activity of NS3, an ...

Plant viral suppressors of post‐transcriptional silencing do not suppress transcriptional silencing [PDF]
SummaryHomology‐dependent gene silencing is a regulatory mechanism that limits RNA accumulation from affected loci either by suppression of transcription (transcriptional gene silencing, TGS) or by activation of a sequence‐specific RNA degradation process (post‐transcriptional gene silencing, PTGS).

Role of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 polycomb protein and its significance in tumor progression and cell differentiation [PDF]
Epigenetics is a branch of genetics that focuses on the heritable changes of DNA or associated proteins, other than DNA sequence variations, which carry information content during cell division [1,2].

Bacterial pathogens encode suppressors of RNA-mediated silencing [PDF]
Plant pathogenic bacteria encounter host defenses mediated by a variety of small RNAs. Bacterial suppressors of silencing that inhibit multiple steps of plant microRNA biogenesis and function have recently been identified.

A recently characterized calmodulin-like protein is an endogenous RNA silencing suppressor that suppresses sense-RNA induced post-transcriptional gene silencing (S-PTGS) and enhances virus infection, but the mechanism underlying calmodulin-like protein ...

Active regulator of SIRT1 is required for cancer cell survival but not for SIRT1 activity [PDF]
The NAD+-dependent deacetylase SIRT1 is involved in diverse cellular processes, and has also been linked with multiple disease states. Among these, SIRT1 expression negatively correlates with cancer survival in both laboratory and clinical studies ...

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is ubiquitous and carried by approximately 90% of the world’s adult population. Several mechanisms and pathways have been proposed as to how EBV facilitates the pathogenesis and progression of malignancies, such as Hodgkin’s ...

Loss of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 is associated with prostate cancer recurrence [PDF]
STAT1 loss has previously been implicated in cell line studies to modify prostate cancer cell growth and survival, however the clinical significance of this has not previously been established.
