Vreteno, a gonad-specific protein, is essential for germline development and primary piRNA biogenesis in Drosophila
In Drosophila, Piwi proteins associate with Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) and protect the germline genome by silencing mobile genetic elements. This defense system acts in germline and gonadal somatic tissue to preserve germline development. Genetic control for these silencing pathways varies great...
