Abstract
Short RNAs regulate gene expression in many species. Some are generated from any double-stranded RNA and degrade complementary RNAs; others are encoded by genes and repress specific mRNAs. Both, it turns out, are processed and handled by similar proteins. These pathways offer a glimpse into a world of small RNAs.
