Endogenous small interfering RNAs in animals [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2008
Until recently, only nematodes among animals had a well-defined endogenous small interfering RNA (endo-siRNA) pathway. This has changed dramatically with the recent discovery of diverse intramolecular and intermolecular substrates that generate endo-siRNAs in Drosophila melanogaster and mice.

stepRNA: Identification of Dicer cleavage signatures and passenger strand lengths in small RNA sequences

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioinformatics, 2022
The enzyme Dicer is a component of many small RNA (sRNA) pathways involved in RNA processing for post-transcriptional regulation, anti-viral response and control of transposable elements.

Small Interfering RNA- Modern Approach for Intervening Pathological Conditions

open access: yesNUST Journal of Natural Sciences, 2021
RNA interference (RNAi) refers to the inhibition of gene expression by small double-stranded RNA molecules. This technology can prove to be a breakthrough biological discovery of the decade as it has the potential to revolutionize the field of ...

Small interfering RNA inhibition of Andes virus replication. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Andes virus (ANDV) is the most common causative agent of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in the Americas, and is the only hantavirus associated with human-to-human transmission. Case fatality rates of ANDV-induced HPS are approximately 40%. There are

A small interfering RNA (siRNA) database for SARS-CoV-2

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) rapidly transformed into a global pandemic, for which a demand for developing antivirals capable of targeting the SARS-CoV-2 RNA genome and blocking the activity of its genes has emerged.

Small interfering RNAs in tendon homeostasis

open access: yesBritish Medical Bulletin, 2021
Abstract Background Tenogenesis and tendon homeostasis are guided by genes encoding for the structural molecules of tendon fibres. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), acting on gene regulation, can therefore participate in the process of tendon healing ...

Traffic into silence: endomembranes and post-transcriptional RNA silencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are small RNAs that repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in plants and animals. Small RNAs guide Argonaute-containing RNA-induced silencing complexes to target RNAs in a sequence-

Recent studies on non-coding small RNAs in plants

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2014
There are many non-coding small RNAs in plants and animals, which regulate gene expression via direct cleavage of target mRNAs or via inhibition of translation at the post-transcriptional level.
