The miR-35-41 family of microRNAs regulates RNAi sensitivity in Caenorhabditis elegans.

RNA interference (RNAi) utilizes small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to direct silencing of specific genes through transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms. The siRNA guides can originate from exogenous (exo-RNAi) or natural endogenous (endo-RNAi) sources of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). In Ca...
