Separable roles for RNAi in regulation of transposable elements and viability in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces japonicus.
RNA interference (RNAi) is a conserved mechanism of small RNA-mediated genome regulation commonly involved in suppression of transposable elements (TEs) through both post-transcriptional silencing, and transcriptional repression via heterochromatin assembly. The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pom...
