Prokaryotic Argonaute Uses an All-in-One Mechanism to Provide Host Defense.

Dipali G Sashital1.   

Abstract

In this issue, Swarts et al. (2017) discover that prokaryotic Argonaute proteins generate their own DNA guide strands through a newly characterized, unguided "chopping" activity. Double-stranded chopping products are selectively loaded onto Argonaute, enabling DNA-guided defense against foreign DNA.
