To keep their vital functions in balance, many organisms use small snippets of RNA to “silence” messenger RNAs that code for certain proteins. New research from FMI scientists has revealed a molecular hub that integrates the activities of different protein complexes involved in such RNA silencing. The findings provide insights into a key mechanism that helps to coordinate cellular functions.
