[EN] ARGONAUTES (AGOs) are the effector proteins functioning in eukaryotic RNA silencing pathways. AGOs associate with small RNAs and are programmed to target complementary RNA or DNA. Plant viruses induce a potent and ...
[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] In RNA-directed silencing pathways, ternary complexes result from small RNA-guided ARGONAUTE (AGO) associating with target transcripts. Target transcripts are often silenced through direct cleavage (slicing), ...

Background: GW/WG motif-containing viral suppressors of RNA silencing (VSRs) have been proposed to act through interaction with Argonaute (AGO) proteins. Results: The activity of a GW motif-containing VSR was found to rely ...
