Abstract: Wolbachia pipientis is an insect endosymbiont known to limit the replication of viruses including dengue and Zika in their primary mosquito vector, Aedes aegypti. Wolbachia is being released into mosquito populations globally in a bid… read more here.

Abstract: The protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica, which causes amebiasis and affects over 50 million people worldwide, contains an important RNAi pathway for gene silencing. Gene silencing via the RNAi pathway is mediated by the Argonaute (Ago)… read more here.

DOI: 10.26508/lsa.201900407
Abstract: A genome-wide comparative analysis of “cryptic” aslncRNAs decay in RNAi-capable and RNAi-deficient budding yeasts suggests an evolutionary contribution of RNAi in shaping the aslncRNAs transcriptome. Antisense long noncoding (aslnc)RNAs are extensively degraded by the nuclear… read more here.
