A centromeric RNA-associated protein complex affects germ line development in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i>

2022-02-05

Abstract excerpt

In many metazoans, centromeres are embedded in large blocks of highly repetitive (peri-) centromeric heterochromatin from which non-coding RNAs emanate that have been assigned diverse functions in different species. However, little is known about their functional details or regulation. The pericentromere of the X chromosome in Drosophila melanogaster contains a multi mega-base array of the 359 bp satellite repeat...
