A piRNA-lncRNA regulatory network initiates responder and trailer piRNA formation during mosquito embryonic development
2020-03-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> PIWI-interacting (pi)RNAs are small silencing RNAs that are crucial for the defense against transposable elements in germline tissues of animals. In Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, the piRNA pathway also contributes to gene regulation in somatic tissues, illustrating additional roles for piRNAs and PIWI proteins besides transposon repression. Here, we identify a highly abundant endogenous piRNA (prop...
