The ability of short RNAs (21-27 nucleotides) to silence genes containing homologous nucleotide sequences is related to RNA silencing. The pathways of short RNAs (siRNA and microRNA) biogenesis from their precursors, double stranded and hairpin RNAs respectively, are briefly reviewed. The functioning of specific RNA binding domains found for the first time in the proteins operating in RNA interference (RNAi) is considered. The interactions of these domains with the earlier well known RNA binding modules in RNAi proteins are described. 相似文献

We study the process of fixation of beneficial mutations in an asexual population by means of a theoretical model. Particularly, we wish to investigate how the supply of deleterious and beneficial mutations influences the dynamics of the adaptive process of an evolving population. It is well known that the deleterious mutations drastically affect the fate of beneficial mutations. In addition, an increasing supply of favorable mutations, to compensate the decay of the fitness due to the accumulation of deleterious mutations, produces the clonal interference phenomenon where advantageous mutations in distinct lineages compete to reach fixation. This competition imposes a limit to the speed of adaptation of the population. Intuitively, we would expect that the interplay of the two mechanisms would conspire to ensure fixation of only large-effect beneficial mutations. Our results, however, show that beneficial mutations of small effect have an increased probability of fixation when both beneficial and deleterious mutations rates are increased. 相似文献

RNA interference consists in specific mRNA degradation in response to introduction of a double-stranded RNA, homologous in nucleotide sequence. RNA interference was found in eukaryotes and is used in genomics as a powerful method to determine the functions of genes with known nucleotide sequences. RNA interference is considered as a tool of protection against viruses and harmful consequences of mobile elements' transposals. The involvement of the components of RNA interference is considered in spermatogenesis of Drosophila melanogaster and regulation of the expression of genes in Caenorhabditis elegans responsible for temporal patterns of development. The role of RNQA interference in stem cell formation and functioning is also considered. 相似文献
