A burst of transposon expression accompanies the activation of Y chromosome fertility genes during Drosophila spermatogenesis

2021-05-10

Abstract excerpt

Transposable elements (TEs) must replicate in germline cells to pass novel insertions to offspring. In Drosophila melanogaster ovaries, TEs can exploit specific developmental windows of opportunity to evade host silencing and increase their copy numbers. However, TE activity and host silencing in the distinct cell types of the Drosophila melanogaster testis are not well understood. We reanalyzed publicly availab...
