THE CRICKET PARALYSIS VIRUS SUPPRESSOR INHIBITS MICRORNA SILENCING MEDIATED BY THE DROSOPHILA ARGONAUTE-2 PROTEIN.

The cricket paralysis virus suppressor inhibits microRNA silencing mediated by the Drosophila Argonaute-2 protein.

Small RNAs are potent regulators of gene expression.They also act in defense pathways against invading nucleic acids such as transposable elements or viruses.To Cartoon Art counteract these defenses, viruses have evolved viral suppressors of RNA silencing (VSRs).Plant viruses encoded VSRs interfere with siRNAs or miRNAs by targeting common mediator
