Two SID-1-dependent genes sensitive to heritable epigenetic changes can also impact reproduction

Aishwarya Sathya, Nathan Shugarts, Andrew Yi, Antony M Jose

The paper identifies two SID-1-dependent genes in C. elegans that influence reproduction and show transgenerational effects when altered.

Intergenerational transport of double-stranded RNA in C. elegans can limit heritable epigenetic changes

Nathan Shugarts, Aishwarya Sathya, Andrew L Yi…·Antony M Jose

The paper shows that dsRNA in C. elegans can be transmitted across generations and influence heritable gene expression through SID-1-mediated transport and retrotransposon regulation.
