The non-redundant functions of PIWI family proteins in gametogenesis in golden hamsters
Abstract The piRNA pathway is essential for female fertility in golden hamsters and likely humans, but not in mice. However, the role of individual PIWIs in mammalian reproduction remains poorly understood outside of mice. Here, we describe the expression profiles, subcellular localization, and knoc...
