[EN] Small RNAs (sRNAs) are loaded into ARGONAUTE (AGO) proteins to induce gene silencing. In plants, the 5¿-terminal nucleotide is important for sRNA sorting into different AGOs. Here we show that microRNA (miRNA) duplex ...
[EN] Small RNAs regulate chromatin modifications such as DNA methylation and gene silencing across eukaryotic genomes. In plants, RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) requires 24-nucleotide small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) ...
