piRNAs Regulated by Mitochondria Variation Linked With Reproduction and Aging in Caenorhabditis elegans

In Caenorhabditis elegans, the binding of Piwi protein to a non-coding RNA form, called piRNA, has been found to be important to both reproductive and aging processes. As the biosynthesis of piRNA is modulated by mitochondrial function, it is likely that the interaction between mitochondrial functio...
