The silkworm ovary-derived BmN4 cell line is an emerging model for studying germ line piRNA pathway because BmN4 cell line retains germ line piRNA pathway. piRNAs are derived from piRNA precursors tra
RNAs associating with PIWI proteins were Immunoisolated from BmN4 cells. Sequence libraries were generated with NEBNext Small RNA Library Prep Set for Illumina(NEB). Libraries were sequenced using Ill
PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are small RNAs that play a critical role in repressing transposons in the germline by guiding PIWI proteins to complementary target sequences. It is well known that the
