Daphnia magna egg piRNA cluster expression profiles change as mothers age
Abstract Background PiRNAs prevent transposable elements wreaking havoc on the germline genome. Changes in piRNA expression over the lifetime of an individual may impact on ageing through continued suppression, or release, of transposable element expression. We identified piRNA producing clusters in...
