Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) guide Argonaute (AGO) proteins to bind and repress target RNAs. However, some unusual targets trigger destruction of the miRNA, a phenomenon known as target-directed miRNA degradation (TDMD). This Snapshot depicts our current understanding of how TDMD occurs and highlights established functions of TDMD in viruses and model organisms. To view this SnapShot, open or download the PDF.
