General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
malfunction | in deletion strains of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase RrpC, full-length and shorter retrotransposable element DIRS-1 (Dictyostelium intermediate repeat sequence 1) messenger RNAs are strongly enriched, shorter versions of long non-coding RNA in DIRS-1 antisense orientation are also enriched in rrpC- strains. DIRS-1 misregulation in the absence of RrpC leads to retrotransposon mobilization | Dictyostelium discoideum |
physiological function | the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase RrpC silences the centromeric retrotransposon DIRS-1 post-transcriptionally and is required for the spreading of RNA silencing signals. RrpC is a key player in the silencing of centromeric retrotransposon DIRS-1. RrpC acts at the post-transcriptional level and is involved in spreading of RNA silencing signals, both in the 5' and 3' directions | Dictyostelium discoideum |
