Non-cell autonomous RNA silencing.

Abstract excerpt

In plants and in some animals, the effects of post-transcriptional RNA silencing can extend beyond its sites of initiation, owing to the movement of signal molecules. Although the mechanisms and channels involved are different, plant and animal silencing signals must have RNA components that account for the nucleotide sequence-specificity of their effects. Studies carried out in plants and Caenorhabditis elegans...
