The emerging role of the piRNA/PIWI complex in respiratory tract diseases
Abstract PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA) is a class of recently discovered small non-coding RNA molecules with a length of 18–33 nt that interacts with the PIWI protein to form the piRNA/PIWI complex. The PIWI family is a subfamily of Argonaute (AGO) proteins that also contain the AGO family which bind...
