HC-Pro silencing suppressor significantly alters the gene expression profile in tobacco leaves and flowers.
BMC plant biology 20110420
<h4>Background</h4>RNA silencing is used in plants as a major defence mechanism against invasive nucleic acids, such as viruses. Accordingly, plant viruses have evolved to produce counter defensive RNA-silencing suppressors (RSSs). These factors interfere in various ways with the RNA silencing machinery in cells, and thereby disturb the microRNA (miRNA) mediated endogene regulation and induce developmental and morphological changes in plants. In this study we have explored these effects using pr ...[more]
