RNAi is a conserved mechanism in which small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) guide the degradation of cognate RNAs, but also promote heterochromatin assembly at repetitive DNA elements such as centromeric repeats. However, the full extent of RNAi functions and its endogenous targets have not been explored...

Epigenetic silencing of transposons by Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) constitutes an RNA-based genome defense mechanism. Piwi endonuclease action amplifies the piRNA pool by generating new piRNAs from target transcripts by a poorly understood mechanism. Here, we identified mouse Fkbp6 as a factor in...

Co-transcriptional RNA processing and surveillance factors mediate heterochromatin formation in fission yeast. In addition to RNAi, RNA elimination machinery including MTREC (Mtl1-Red1 core) and the exosome are involved in facultative heterochromatin assembly, however, the exact mechanisms remain un...

In plants, heterochromatin is maintained by a small RNA-based gene silencing mechanism known as RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). RdDM requires the non-redundant functions of two plant-specific DNA-dependent RNA polymerases (Pol) Pol IV and Pol V. Pol IV plays a major role in siRNA biogenesis, w...

In Arabidopsis thaliana, four different DICER-LIKE (DCL) proteins have distinct, but partially overlapping functions in the biogenesis of microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) from longer, non-coding precursor RNAs. To analyze the impact of different components of the small RNA (...

The repression of transposons by the Piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA) pathway is essential to protect animal germ cells. In Drosophila ovaries, Panoramix (Panx) enforces transcriptional silencing by binding to the target-engaged Piwi-piRNA complex, although the precise mechanisms by which this occurs re...

Detect the global transcriptional changes occuring during spreading and maintenance of systemic post transcriptional silencing . Test the hypothesis that activation of systemic PTGS induces parallel antiviral defense pathways. Gene expression was analysed by MACE method (Massive Analysis of cDNA End...

Abstract: In the yeast S. pombe, multiple chromatin-modifying enzymes are required for heterochromatin formation, yet how their actions alter chromatin structure to block access to DNAby the transcriptional machinery is unknown. We constructed high-resolution nucleosome occupancy maps of heterochrom...
