Three structures, in particular, have provided insight into the basis for the molecular interactions involved in suppression of gene silencing (RNAi) by plant and animal viruses. Interestingly, the three proteins in these examples each employ a unique solution to bind the double stranded silencing RNA: [[Tomato aspermy virus protein 2b Suppression of RNA Silencing|one]] interacts with the major groove, [[Flock house virus B2 protein Suppression of RNA Silencing|one]] interacts mainly with the minor groove, and [[Plant Viral Protein p19 Suppression of RNA Silencing|one]] uses "molecular calipers" to measure the size of the silecing RNA.  In Proteopedia, there are separate detailed entries for each of these structures:
