Abstract:
:In plants, RNA silencing plays important roles in antiviral defence, genome integrity and development. This process involves nucleotide sequence-specific interactions that are mediated by small RNA molecules of 21-25 nucleotides. Although the core biochemical reactions of RNA silencing have been well characterized in animals, such information was crucially missing in plants. Recent work now addresses this question and reveals an overall similarity between the plant and animal RNA-silencing pathways, as well as some intriguing plant-specific aspects.
