Abstract
Systemic RNA interference (RNAi) in Caenorhabditis elegans is initiated by SID-1-mediated double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) internalization. By combining cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), in vitro and in vivo assays, we show how SID-1 specifically recognizes dsRNA and provide important insights into dsRNA internalization by SID-1.
期刊介绍:
Nature Structural & Molecular Biology is a comprehensive platform that combines structural and molecular research. Our journal focuses on exploring the functional and mechanistic aspects of biological processes, emphasizing how molecular components collaborate to achieve a particular function. While structural data can shed light on these insights, our publication does not require them as a prerequisite.
