Evidence that RNA silencing functions as an antiviral defense mechanism in fungi.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 31 Jul 2007

Abstract excerpt

The role of RNA silencing as an antiviral defense mechanism in fungi was examined by testing the effect of dicer gene disruptions on mycovirus infection of the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica. C. parasitica dicer-like genes dcl-1 and dcl-2 were cloned and shown to share a high level of predicted amino acid sequence identity with the corresponding dicer-like genes from Neurospora crassa [Ncdcl-1...
