A Cytoplasmic Argonaute Protein Promotes the Inheritance of RNAi

Summary: RNAi-elicited gene silencing is heritable and can persist for multiple generations after its initial induction in C. elegans. However, the mechanism by which parental-acquired trait-specific information from RNAi is inherited by the progenies is not fully understood. Here, we identified a c...
