Argonaute bypasses cellular obstacles without hindrance during target search

Argonaute protein is loaded with small RNA and scans long stretch of sequences to find complementary target sites. Here, using single-molecule FRET and kinetic modelling, the authors showed that prokaryotic Argonaute protein binds target DNA loosely and slides along the DNA during target search.
