A non-vesicular Argonaute protein is transmitted from nematode to mouse and is important for parasite survival
2025-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Argonautes are ancient proteins with well-characterised functions in cell-autonomous gene regulation and genome defense but less clear roles in non-cell-autonomous processes. Extracellular Argonautes have been reported across plants, animals and protozoa yet their biochemical and functional properties remain elusive. Here we demonstrate that an extracellular Argonaute (exWAGO) released by the rodent-infective para...
