Topoisomerase 3β interacts with RNAi machinery to promote heterochromatin formation and transcriptional silencing in Drosophila
Topoisomerases solve topological problems during DNA metabolism, but their role in RNA metabolism remains unclear. Here the authors provide evidence that in Drosophila, Topoisomerase 3β interacts biochemically and genetically with the RNAi-induced silencing complex (RISC) to promote heterochromatin...
