RSD-2 mediates RDE-4-independent antiviral silencing in Caenorhabditis elegans
RNA interference (RNAi) is a phylogenetically conserved gene regulation mechanism that modulates a wide variety of biological functions through suppressing gene expression at transcriptional or posttranscriptional levels (Bass 2000; Sharp 2001). One of the major natural functions of RNAi is antivira...
