| post-transcriptional gene silencing |
Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) is a sequence-specific RNA degradation system designed to act as an anti-viral defense mechanism. A form of PTGS triggered by transgenic DNA, called co-suppression, was initially described in plants and a related phenomenon, termed quelling, was later observed in the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa

| post-translational modification |
Once a peptide has been created by a ribosome, it may require further chemical groups to be added or removed from its component amino acids in order for it to function correctly. These chemical changes that occur after translation are called post-translational modifications.
