proTRAC - a software for probabilistic piRNA cluster detection, visualization and analysis
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Throughout the metazoan lineage, typically gonadal expressed Piwi proteins and their guiding piRNAs (~26-32nt in length) form a protective mechanism of RNA interference directed against the propagation of transposable elements (TEs)....
