Endogenous piRNA-guided slicing triggers responder and trailer piRNA production from viral RNA in <i>Aedes aegypti</i> mosquitoes

2020-07-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> In the germline of animals, PIWI interacting (pi)RNAs protect the genome against the detrimental effects of transposon mobilization. In Drosophila, piRNA-mediated cleavage of transposon RNA triggers the production of responder piRNAs via ping-pong amplification. Responder piRNA 3’ end formation is coupled to the production of downstream trailer piRNAs mediated by the nuclease Zucchini, expandin...
