  1. ...that under optimal growth conditions, RDE-1 is not important for development. The lack of a clear phenotype in rde-1 mutants is reminiscent of the mild phenotypes originally observed in Drosophila AGO2 mutants, which appear superficially wild-type but have nonessential roles in germ cell development and male...
  2. ...in Drosophila melanogaster, much less is known about the origin and evolution of piCs in this or any other species. To investigate piC origin and evolution, we use a population genomic approach to compare piC activity and sequence composition across eight geographically distant strains of D. melanogaster...
  3. ...(20–22 nt) may also contribute to the silencing of TEs (Chung et al. 2008; Czech et al. 2008; Barckmann et al. 2018). In contrast to piRNAs, which are solely found in the germline of most Drosophila species, siRNAs are found both in the germline and the somatic cells (Lewis et al. 2018). The siRNA...
  4. ...relative to miRNAs. This distinction may be reflective of the differences in size, abundance, modifications, and associated Argonaute proteins between tsRNAs and miRNAs. In Drosophila, miRNAs, siRNAs, and piRNAs execute post-transcriptional regulation by primarily binding to AGO1, AGO2, and AGO3/PIWI...
  5. ...trajectories in addition to just gonadal aging end points. Indeed, we found that many key events, including those relating to TE regulation and piRNA pathway regulation, are most salient in middle-aged ovaries, rather than undergoing linear changes with age. Our observations differ from reports in Drosophila...
  6. ..., University of Southern Mississippi, Hattiesburg, Mississippi 39406, USA ↵6 These authors contributed equally to this work. Corresponding author: laie@mskcc.orgAbstractTo assess miRNA evolution across the Drosophila genus, we analyzed several billion small RNA reads across 12 fruit fly species. These data...
  7. ...elements (TEs). We analyzed the Drosophila ovary somatic sheet (OSS) cell line and found that it expresses miRNAs, endogenous small interfering RNAs (endo-siRNAs), and piRNAs in abundance. In contrast to intact gonads, which contain mixtures of germline and somatic cell types that express different Piwi...
  8. ...Population dynamics of PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) and their targets in Drosophila Jian Lu and Andrew G. Clark 1 Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853, USA Abstract Transposable elements (TEs...
  9. .... 2008). Vertebrate piRNAs are 25- to 30-nt small RNAs that function via interaction with Piwi proteins of the Argonaute family and were initially discovered in Drosophila (Aravin et al. 2003). piRNAs are complementary to intergenic repeats and mediate silencing of 2014 Harding et al. This article...
  10. ...-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) repress transposable elements (TEs) from mobilizing in gonadal cells. To determine the spectrum of piRNA-regulated targets that may extend beyond TEs, we conducted a genome-wide survey for transcripts associated with PIWI and for transcripts affected by PIWI knockdown in Drosophila...
