Cartoon schematic to show that miR-107 and miR-128 transfections decrease the enrichment of endogenous mRNA targets in AGO-miRNPs. MiR-107 and miR-128 also lead to decreased miRNA/miRNP activity by reporter assays, correlated with decreased AGO mRNA and protein in the cells. However, since AGO mRNAs are not enriched in miRNPs, the mechanism for the down-regulation of AGO is as yet unknown.
