Abstract excerpt
Argonaute proteins are central components of RNA interference (RNAi) and related phenomena in a wide variety of eukaryotes, including the early diverging protozoan Trypanosoma brucei. The single T. brucei Argonaute protein (TbAGO1) is in a complex with small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), and a fraction of this ribonucleoprotein particle is associated with polyribosomes. In this study, we generated a panel of...
