MicroRNAs (miRNAs) bind to complementary target RNAs and regulate their gene
expression post-transcriptionally. These non-coding regulatory RNAs become functional …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are approximately 22-nucleotide-long, small non-coding RNAs that
post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression. The biogenesis of miRNAs involves multiple …

Argonaute proteins are conserved throughout all domains of life. Recently characterized
prokaryotic Argonaute proteins (pAgos) participate in host defense by DNA interference …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) broadly regulate gene expression through association with Argonaute
(Ago), which also protects miRNAs from degradation. However, miRNA stability is known to …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) control expression of thousands of genes in plants and animals.
miRNAs function by guiding Argonaute proteins to complementary sites in messenger RNAs …

Since its relatively recent discovery, RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a potent,
specific and ubiquitous means of gene regulation. Through a number of pathways that are …

Argonaute proteins play a central role in mediating post-transcriptional gene regulation by
microRNAs (miRNAs). Argonautes use the nucleotide sequences in miRNAs as guides for …

RNA silencing is a eukaryote‐specific phenomenon in which microRNAs and small
interfering RNAs degrade messenger RNAs containing a complementary sequence. To this …

Nearly every cell in the human body contains a set of programmable gene-silencing proteins
named Argonaute. Argonaute proteins mediate gene regulation by small RNAs and thereby …

The highly conserved Argonaute protein family members play a central role in the regulation
of gene expression networks, orchestrating the establishment and the maintenance of cell …
