[HTML][HTML] Genetic and functional diversification of small RNA pathways in plants

…, D Zilberman, SE Jacobsen, JC Carrington - PLoS …, 2004 - journals.plos.org
Multicellular eukaryotes produce small RNA molecules (approximately 21–24 nucleotides) of
two general types, microRNA (miRNA) and short interfering RNA (siRNA). They collectively …

A uniform system for microRNA annotation

…, B Bartel, DP Bartel, CB Burge, JC Carrington… - Rna, 2003 - rnajournal.cshlp.org
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNA gene products about 22 nt long that are
processed by Dicer from precursors with a characteristic hairpin secondary structure. …

Role of microRNAs in plant and animal development

JC Carrington, V Ambros - Science, 2003 - science.org
Small RNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs) and short interfering RNAs (siRNAs), are key
components of an evolutionarily conserved system of RNA-based gene regulation in …

[HTML][HTML] microRNA-directed phasing during trans-acting siRNA biogenesis in plants

E Allen, Z Xie, AM Gustafson, JC Carrington - Cell, 2005 - cell.com
Plants and animals use small RNAs (microRNAs [miRNAs] and siRNAs) as guides for
posttranscriptional and epigenetic regulation. In plants, miRNAs and trans-acting (ta) siRNAs form …

Cleavage of Scarecrow-like mRNA Targets Directed by a Class of Arabidopsis miRNA

C Llave, Z Xie, KD Kasschau, JC Carrington - Science, 2002 - science.org
Micro-RNAs (miRNAs) are regulatory molecules that mediate effects by interacting with
messenger RNA (mRNA) targets. Here we show that Arabidopsis thaliana miRNA 39 (also …

Control of leaf morphogenesis by microRNAs

…, X Wu, C Schommer, R Schwab, JC Carrington… - Nature, 2003 - nature.com
Plants with altered microRNA metabolism have pleiotropic developmental defects, but direct
evidence for microRNAs regulating specific aspects of plant morphogenesis has been …

[HTML][HTML] Genome sequence and analysis of the Irish potato famine pathogen Phytophthora infestans

…, JIB Bos, V Bulone, G Cai, C Cakir, JC Carrington… - Nature, 2009 - nature.com
Phytophthora infestans is the most destructive pathogen of potato and a model organism for
the oomycetes, a distinct lineage of fungus-like eukaryotes that are related to organisms …

[HTML][HTML] High-Throughput Sequencing of Arabidopsis microRNAs: Evidence for Frequent Birth and Death of MIRNA Genes

…, SA Givan, TF Law, SR Grant, JL Dangl, JC Carrington - PloS one, 2007 - journals.plos.org
In plants, microRNAs (miRNAs) comprise one of two classes of small RNAs that function
primarily as negative regulators at the posttranscriptional level. Several MIRNA genes in the …

Criteria for annotation of plant MicroRNAs

…, JL Bowman, X Cao, JC Carrington… - The Plant …, 2008 - academic.oup.com
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are ∼21 nucleotide noncoding RNAs produced by Dicer-catalyzed
excision from stem-loop precursors. Many plant miRNAs play critical roles in development, …

Role of transposable elements in heterochromatin and epigenetic control

…, V Mittal, B May, KD Kasschau, JC Carrington… - Nature, 2004 - nature.com
Heterochromatin has been defined as deeply staining chromosomal material that remains
condensed in interphase, whereas euchromatin undergoes de-condensation 1 . …
