An argonaute-like protein is required for meiotic silencing

Genetics. 2003 Jun;164(2):821-8. doi: 10.1093/genetics/164.2.821.

Abstract

We demonstrate the involvement of suppressor of meiotic silencing-2 (sms-2(+)), a Neurospora gene coding for an Argonaute-like protein, in meiotic silencing and normal sexual development.
