The piRNA cluster torimochi is an expanding transposon in cultured silkworm cells

PIWI proteins and PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) play a central role in repressing transposable elements in animal germ cells. It is thought that piRNAs are mainly produced from discrete genomic loci named piRNA clusters, which often contain many “dead” transposon remnants from past invasions and ha...
