The intron in centromeric noncoding RNA facilitates RNAi-mediated formation of heterochromatin.

The intron in centromeric noncoding RNA facilitates RNAi-mediated formation of heterochromatin.

In fission yeast, the formation of centromeric heterochromatin is induced through the RNA interference (RNAi)-mediated pathway. Some pre-mRNA splicing mutants (prp) exhibit defective formation of centromeric heterochromatin, suggesting that splicing factors play roles in the formation of heterochrom...
