Centromere-associated retroelement evolution in Drosophila melanogaster reveals an underlying conflict

Lucas W. Hemmer, Sherif Negm, Xuewen Geng, Cécile Courret, Beatriz M. Navarro-Domínguez, Iain Speece, Xiaolu Wei, Eddyson Altidor, James Chaffer, John S. Sproul, Amanda M. Larracuente

The paper studies the evolution of G2/Jockey-3, a retroelement associated with centromeres in Drosophila melanogaster, finding it is likely a selfish element that targets centromeres to evade host defenses.

Heterochromatin-dependent transcription of satellite DNAs in the Drosophila melanogaster female germline

Xiaolu Wei, Danna G. Eickbush, Iain Speece, Amanda M. Larracuente

The paper shows that satDNA transcription and piRNA production in Drosophila melanogaster germline depend on the Rhino-Deadlock-Cutoff complex and Moonshiner, establishing heterochromatin at satDNA loci.
