Journal ArticleDOI
The rde-1 Gene, RNA Interference, and Transposon Silencing in C. elegans
Hiroaki Tabara,Madathia Sarkissian,William G. Kelly,Jamie Fleenor,Alla Grishok,Lisa Timmons,Andrew Fire,Craig C. Mello +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that rde-1 is a member of the piwi/sting/argonaute/zwille/eIF2C gene family conserved from plants to vertebrates and the possibility that one natural function of RNAi is transposon silencing is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distinct Requirements for Somatic and Germline Expression of a Generally Expressed Caernorhabditis elegans Gene
TL;DR: The results suggest the possibility of concerted mechanisms for silencing unwanted germiline expression of repetitive sequences in Caenorhabditis elegans and the additional requirement for let-858 in the larval germline.
Journal ArticleDOI
RNA polymerase II is a glycoprotein : modification of the cooh-terminal domain by O-GlcNAc
TL;DR: It is shown that the COOH-terminal domain of RNAP II, the largest subunit of mammalian RNA polymerase II, is also modified by a novel form of protein glycosylation, O-GlcNAc, which is consistent with the idea that phosphorylation and glyCosylation are mutually exclusive modifications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glycosylation in the nucleus and cytoplasm
TL;DR: The role of lectin binding sites in the Nucleus, as well as other mechanisms, are investigated in more detail in the next chapter.
Journal ArticleDOI
X-chromosome silencing in the germline of C. elegans.
William G. Kelly,Christine E Schaner,Abby F. Dernburg,Min-Ho Lee,Stuart K. Kim,Anne M. Villeneuve,Valerie Reinke +6 more
TL;DR: The X chromosome in XO males is structurally analogous to the sex body in mammals, contains a histone modification associated with heterochromatin in other species and is inactivated throughout meiosis.
