The PIWI/piRNA response is relaxed in a rodent that lacks mobilizing transposable elements

M. W. Vandewege, R. N. Platt, D. K. Merriman, D. A. Ray, F. G. Hoffmann

The study examines PIWI/piRNA dynamics in 13-lined ground squirrels lacking mobilizing transposable elements, finding reduced PIWI expression and minimal TE transcriptional suppression.
