Journal ArticleDOI

RNA-Guided RNA Cleavage by a CRISPR RNA-Cas Protein Complex

TL;DR: The results indicate that prokaryotes possess a unique RNA silencing system that functions by homology-dependent cleavage of invader RNAs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-coding RNAs: lessons from the small nuclear and small nucleolar RNAs

TL;DR: The small nuclear and small nucleolar RNPs are two well studied classes of ncRNPs with elaborate assembly and trafficking pathways that provide paradigms for understanding the biogenesis of other nc RNPs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cas6 is an endoribonuclease that generates guide RNAs for invader defense in prokaryotes

TL;DR: This work has identified Pyrococcus furiosus Cas6 as a novel endoribonuclease that cleaves CRISPR RNAs within the repeat sequences to release individual invader targeting RNAs.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Human Telomerase Holoenzyme Protein Required for Cajal Body Localization and Telomere Synthesis

TL;DR: Depletion of TCAB1 by using RNA interference prevents TERC from associating with Cajal bodies, disrupts telomerase-telomere association, and abrogates telomere synthesis by telomersase.
