The piRNA pathway mediates transcriptional silencing of LTR retrotransposons in ovaries and somatic tissues of <i>Aedes</i> mosquitoes

2024-11-28

Abstract excerpt

The PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA) pathway preserves genomic integrity by suppressing transposable elements in animal germlines. Despite its well-established function in the animal germline, piRNAs and PIWI proteins are expressed in somatic tissues across arthropod species, and their functions outside the gonads remain poorly understood. Aedes albopictus mosquitoes express four PIWI genes, Piwi4 , Piwi5 , Piwi6...
