sRNAs examples Flashcards
1
Q
example of a ckRNAi system
A
A. thaliana and B. cinerea (fungus)
2
Q
mechanism of RNAi here
A
sRNAs binding with host AGO1, part of the RISC, something that may aid in immunity
3
Q
example of sRNA transfer from host to microbe
A
still between A. thaliana and B. cinerea- DCTN1 inhibited, part of the fungal vesicle trafficking system
4
Q
example of mutualistic system
A
Rhizobia and soybean plant- genes such as RHD3 and LRX5 silenced, which increases nodule formation
