Abstract excerpt
Piwi proteins are essential for germline stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis and gonadal development in diverse organisms. In this study, two piwi homologues were identified and characterized in Dabry’s sturgeon Acipenser dabryanus, designated Adpiwil1 and Adpiwil2. Multiple sequence alignments showed that both AdPiwil1 and AdPiwil2 shared highly homologous PAZ and PIWI domains, the typical regions of Piwi orthol...
