Decreased SynMuv B gene activity in response to viral infection leads to activation of the antiviral RNAi pathway in C. elegans. by Ashwin Seetharaman, Himani Galagali, Elizabeth Linarte, Mona H X Liu, Jennifer D Cohen, Kashish Chetal, Ruslan Sadreyev, Alex J Tate, Taiowa A Montgomery, Gary Ruvkun

“…Many synMuv B genes encode dREAM complex chromatin-regulatory proteins found in nearly all animals and plants. We show that mRNAs which are highly induced in synMuv B mutants are congruent with those induced by Orsay RNA virus infection, suggesting that the enhanced RNAi of synMuv B mutants may also be triggered by down-regulation of synMuvB gene activity in an Orsay virus infection of wild type. …”
