siRNAs can function as miRNAs

JG Doench, CP Petersen, PA Sharp - Genes & development, 2003 - genesdev.cshlp.org
With the discovery of RNA interference (RNAi) and related phenomena, new regulatory roles
attributed to RNA continue to emerge. Here we show, in mammalian tissue culture, that a …

[PDF][PDF] Short RNAs repress translation after initiation in mammalian cells

CP Petersen, ME Bordeleau, J Pelletier, PA Sharp - Molecular cell, 2006 - cell.com
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are predicted to regulate 30% of mammalian protein-encoding genes
by interactions with their 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs). We use partially complementary …

Mid-infrared supercontinuum covering the 1.4–13.3 μm molecular fingerprint region using ultra-high NA chalcogenide step-index fibre

CR Petersen, U Møller, I Kubat, B Zhou, S Dupont… - Nature …, 2014 - nature.com
The mid-infrared spectral region is of great technical and scientific interest because most
molecules display fundamental vibrational absorptions in this region, leaving distinctive …

[HTML][HTML] Wnt signaling and the polarity of the primary body axis

CP Petersen, PW Reddien - Cell, 2009 - cell.com
How animals establish and pattern the primary body axis is one of the most fundamental
problems in biology. Data from diverse deuterostomes (frog, fish, mouse, and amphioxus) and …

Gene silencing using micro-RNA designed hairpins

MT McManus, CP Petersen, BB Haines, J Chen… - Rna, 2002 - cambridge.org
During RNA interference (RNAi), long dsRNA is processed to ∼21 nt duplexes, short
interfering RNAs (siRNAs), which silence genes through a mRNA degradation pathway. Small …

Smed-βcatenin-1 Is Required for Anteroposterior Blastema Polarity in Planarian Regeneration

CP Petersen, PW Reddien - Science, 2008 - science.org
Planarian flatworms can regenerate heads at anterior-facing wounds and tails at posterior-facing
wounds throughout the body. How this regeneration polarity is specified has been a …

14-3-3σ controls mitotic translation to facilitate cytokinesis

…, MATM Van Vugt, SC Artim, PH Huang, CP Petersen… - Nature, 2007 - nature.com
14-3-3 proteins are crucial in a wide variety of cellular responses including cell cycle
progression, DNA damage checkpoints and apoptosis. One particular 14-3-3 isoform, σ, is a p53-…

Polarized notum Activation at Wounds Inhibits Wnt Function to Promote Planarian Head Regeneration

CP Petersen, PW Reddien - Science, 2011 - science.org
Regeneration requires initiation of programs tailored to the identity of missing parts. Head-versus-tail
regeneration in planarians presents a paradigm for study of this phenomenon. After …

[HTML][HTML] Real-time high-resolution mid-infrared optical coherence tomography

NM Israelsen, CR Petersen, A Barh, D Jain… - Light: Science & …, 2019 - nature.com
The potential for improving the penetration depth of optical coherence tomography systems
by using light sources with longer wavelengths has been known since the inception of the …

A wound-induced Wnt expression program controls planarian regeneration polarity

CP Petersen, PW Reddien - Proceedings of the National …, 2009 - National Acad Sciences
Regeneration requires specification of the identity of new tissues to be made. Whether this
process relies only on intrinsic regulative properties of regenerating tissues or whether wound …
