ARGONAUTE PIWI domain and microRNA duplex structure regulate small RNA sorting in Arabidopsis

ARGONAUTE PIWI domain and microRNA duplex structure regulate small RNA sorting in Arabidopsis

Small RNAs (sRNAs) are loaded into ARGONAUTE (AGO) proteins to induce gene silencing. In plants, the 5′-terminal nucleotide is important for sRNA sorting into different AGOs. Here, we show that miRNA duplex structure also contributes to miRNA sorting. Base-pairing at the 15th nucleotide of a miRNA d...
