What's a GeneRIF?

Here we demonstrate that EGO-1 can compensate for the lack of RRF-1 when dsRNA from neurons is used to silence genes in intestinal cells.

rrf-1 mutants display several phenotypes not previously appreciated, including broader tissue-specific RNAi-processing capabilities
Title: C. elegans rrf-1 mutations maintain RNAi efficiency in the soma in addition to the germline.
Present evidence for successive engagement of two different RdRPs (RRF-3/RRF-1) in an endogenous siRNA-based mechanism targeting specific mRNAs in C. elegans soma.
