| Description: | Since the discovery that Argonautes play essential roles in RNA silencing in a variety of eukaryotes, biochemical properties and biological functions of Argonautes have been extensively studied using an assortment of techniques [1, 3]. Biochemical and structural analyses in the past decade clarified their detailed molecular architectures along with the mechanisms by which Argonautes bind guide and target nucleic acids and cleave targets [4, 5]. Despite the similarity of the overall domain structures, the roles of eukaryotic and prokaryotic Argonautes are quite diverse. Most of them seem to serve mainly as defense systems against foreign nucleic acids, such as viruses/bacteriophages and transposons, while some others are involved in gene regulation |
