Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
17609283 DCL4 is capable of accessing flexibly structured single-stranded RNA substrates (preferably T-shaped hairpins) to produce satsiRNAs. This result reveals that viral RNA of diverse structures may stimulate antiviral DCL activities in plant cells.
17592042 Study shows that unidirectional (3-->5') transitivity requires the hierarchical and redundant functions of DCL4 and DCL2 acting downstream from RDR6 to produce 21- and 22-nt-long siRNAs, respectively.
16040244 DCL4 is the primary processor of endogenous RDR6-dependent trans-acting siRNAs (tasiRNAs).
16741077 DCL4 and DCL2 exhibit specific, hierarchical antiviral activities; inhibition of DCL4 by a viral-encoded suppressor revealed the subordinate antiviral activity of DCL2
17400893 Several gene transcripts were found to be routed through the RDR6/DCL4-dependent pathway after initial targeting by one or multiple microRNAs or trans-acting short interfering RNA.
16810317 DCL4 is the primary producer of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) derived siRNAs and also produces turnip crinkle virus (TCV)-derived siRNAs. DCL2 appears to be the major producer of TCV-derived siRNAs, likely because TCV suppresses the activity of DCL4.[DCL4]
16273107 DICER-LIKE 4 (DCL4) produces the 21-nt siRNA from the inverted repeat transgenes is the RNA component of cell-to-cell silencing signal in plants. [DCL4]
16129836 dcl4-2 mutant resembled an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase 6 mutant in that both mutants lacked ta-small interfering RNAs [DCL4]
