Characterizing the role of RSD-6 in the biogenesis of virus-derived small interfering RNAs and the modulation of viral pathogenesis
2025-09-06
Abstract excerpt
Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) produced through the processing of viral double-stranded RNAs mediate potent antiviral RNA interference (RNAi) in eukaryotes. In Caenorhabditis elegans , such an antiviral defense is further amplified through the production of secondary siRNAs, yet the mechanisms by which secondary virus-derived siRNAs (vsiRNAs) confer protection remain poorly understood. Here, we characterize the...
