Adaptation to P Element Transposon Invasion in Drosophila melanogaster

Adaptation to P Element Transposon Invasion in Drosophila melanogaster: Jaspreet S. Khurana, Jie Wang, Jia Xu, Birgit S. Koppetsch, Travis C. Thomson, Anetta Nowosielska, Chengjian Li, Phillip D. Zamore, Zhiping Weng, William E. Theurkauf. Transposons evolve rapidly and can mobilize and trigger genetic instability. Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) silence these genome pathogens, but it is unclear how the piRNA pathway adapts to invasi....
