The <i>mir-35</i> family links maternal germline sex to embryonic viability in <i>C. elegans</i>

2019-01-09

Abstract excerpt

The germline sex determination pathway in C. elegans determines whether germ cells develop as oocytes or sperm, with no previously known effect on viability. The mir-35 family of microRNAs are expressed in the C. elegans germline and embryo and are essential for both viability and normal hermaphroditic sex determination, preventing aberrant male gene expression in XX hermaphrodite embryos. Here we show that com...
