Endogenous RNA Interference Provides a Somatic Defense against Drosophila Transposons

BACKGROUND: Because of the mutagenic consequences of mobile genetic elements, elaborate defenses have evolved to restrict their activity. A major system that controls the activity of transposable elements (TEs) in flies and vertebrates is mediated by Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), which are ~24–30...
