Cytoplasmic Assembly and Selective Nuclear Import of Arabidopsis ARGONAUTE4/siRNA Complexes


ABSTRACT: Here we profiled small RNAs from whole cell, cytoplasmic and nuclear extracts from three-week-old Arabidopsis seedlings. We unexpectedly found that nuclear functional hc-siRNAs are predominantly present in the cytoplasm. Samples from Arabidopsis thaliana whole cell, cytoplasmic and nuclear extracts with 3 replicates for each. 9 samples in all.

In plants, DNA methylation can be mediated by a class of Argonaute4 (AGO4)-associated heterochromatic siRNAs (hc-siRNAs), through a pathway termed RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). It has been thought that RdDM is solely a nuclear process, as both the biogenesis and functioning of hc-siRNAs take place in the nucleus. In this study, we unexpectedly found that hc-siRNAs are predominantly present in the cytoplasm. We demonstrated that AGO4 is loaded with hc-siRNAs in the cytoplasm and the format  ...[more]
