Maternal Piwi Regulates Primordial Germ Cell Development to Ensure the Fertility of Female Progeny in <i>Drosophila</i>
2021-04-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> In many animals, germline development is initiated by proteins and RNAs that are expressed maternally. PIWI proteins and their associated small noncoding P IWI- i nteracting RNAs (piRNAs), which guide PIWI to target RNAs by base-pairing, are among the maternal components deposited into the germline of the early embryo in Drosophila . Piwi has been extensively studied in the adult ovary and te...
