Functional characterization of a new enzymatic activity of the ‘miRNase’-XRN-2 from Caenorhabditis elegans.
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules play a central role in every pivotal process in the cell, and ribonucleases (RNases) are critical for their biogenesis, processing, and degradation. Therefore, RNases are indispensable for ... -
Molecular pathways governing maturation and decay of precursor piRNAs in Caenorhabditis elegans
Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are an animal-specific class of germline-enriched small non-coding RNAs that play a crucial role in germline development and fertility in diverse organisms. In Caenorhabditis elegans (C. ... -
Pathogen-derived volatiles modulate flight or fight response in Caenorhabditis elegans
In nature, the interaction between two organisms largely relies on their ability to sense and respond to each other, which involves many specific chemicals and signaling pathways. Animals have evolved mechanisms to detect ...
