lüll The RNA-induced silencing complex: a versatile gene-silencing machine Pratt AJ; MacRae IJJ Biol Chem 2009[Jul]; 284 (27): 17897-901RNA interference is a powerful mechanism of gene silencing that underlies many aspects of eukaryotic biology. On the molecular level, RNA interference is mediated by a family of ribonucleoprotein complexes called RNA-induced silencing complexes (RISCs), which can be programmed to target virtually any nucleic acid sequence for silencing. The ability of RISC to locate target RNAs has been co-opted by evolution many times to generate a broad spectrum of gene-silencing pathways. Here, we review the fundamental biochemical and biophysical properties of RISC that facilitate gene targeting and describe the various mechanisms of gene silencing known to exploit RISC activity.|Animals[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Multiprotein Complexes/*chemistry/*genetics[MESH]|Protein Structure, Tertiary[MESH]|RNA Interference/*physiology[MESH] |
