Minimal mechanistic model of siRNA-dependent target RNA slicing by recombinant human Argonaute 2 protein.

abstract：:Inherited single gene defects have been identified in both humans and mice that lead to loss of developmental control over the left-right asymmetry of the heart and viscera. In mice the recessively inherited mutation iv leads to such apparent loss of control over situs: 50% of iv/iv mice exhibit situs inversus and 50%...
