Research from University of Edinburgh, Wellcome Trust Center for Cell Biology provide new insights into life sciences
Published in Gene Therapy Weekly, February 18th, 2010
Scientists discuss in 'Hairpin RNA induces secondary small interfering RNA synthesis and silencing in trans in fission yeast' new findings in life sciences. According to recent research published in the journal Embo Reports, "RNA interference (RNAi) is widespread in eukaryotes and regulates gene expression transcriptionally or post-transcriptionally. In fission yeast, RNAi is tightly coupled to template transcription and chromatin modifications that establish heterochromatin in cis."
"Exogenous double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) triggers seem to induce heterochromatin formation in trans only when certain silencing proteins are overexpressed. Here, we show that green...
