RNA has emerged as an important regulatory substance. Studies with worms, plants, and the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa have demonstrated that double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can cause degradation of matching mRNA, resulting in RNA interference (RNAi) ([ 1 ][1]). In fission yeast [reviewed in ([
