| description | Here we show that MIWI is a small RNA-guided ribonuclease (Slicer) that requires extensive complementarity for target cleavage in vitro. Disruption of its catalytic activity in mice by a single point mutation results in male infertility and displays increased accumulation of LINE1 transposon transcripts. MIWI-associated piRNAs from different genotypes were sequenced. Total RNA from purified round spermatids were subjected to Ribozero purification and strand-specific RNAseq lib prepared. Global 5' RACE library was prepare from indicated genotypes. |
