Members of the Argonaute family function in RNA interference by silencing target mRNAs. A new study in Cell uncovers an additional role for Argonaute proteins in the post-transcriptional ...

Whether MIWI and Argonaute proteins function on the same or on functionally distinct pathways remains unknown. How are specific components transported to the CB? And what are the proteins involved ...

(2) Loading of different small RNAs into appropriate Argonaute proteins is critical for their appropriate function, and is therefore tightly regulated. (3) There are many steps at which the biogenesis ...
