Abstract

Nineteen years after Lisa Timmons and Andy Fire first described RNA transfer from bacteria to C. elegans in an experimental setting the biologic role of this trans-kingdom RNA-based communication remains unknown. Here we summarize our current understanding on the mechanism and potential role of such social RNA.
