The paper shows that pre-loaded Ago2-miRISC targets RhoGDIα to facilitate Shigella-induced vacuolar rupture.

This study shows that extracellular small RNAs from plants direct gene silencing in a plant-interacting bacterium, revealing a novel mechanism of bacterial gene regulation.

This paper shows that the Legionella pneumophila effector LegK1 suppresses RNA silencing by interacting with Argonaute proteins and activating NF-κB signaling, enhancing bacterial virulence.

This paper shows ROS1, an Arabidopsis demethylase, removes DNA methylation at promoter regions to activate immune genes and enhance resistance to bacterial pathogens.
