piRNA Rules of Engagement.

Abstract:

:piRNAs are known to silence transposable elements, but not all piRNAs match transposon sequences. Recent studies from Shen et al. (2018) and Zhang et al. (2018) identify rules for piRNA target recognition in Caenorhabditis elegans. Permissive pairing rules allow targeting of essentially all germline mRNAs, while protective mechanisms prevent silencing self-genes.

  • The transcription factor MEF2C is required for craniofacial development.

    abstract::MEF2 transcription factors are well-established regulators of muscle development. We have discovered an unanticipated role for MEF2C in the neural crest, where tissue-specific inactivation results in neonatal lethality due to severe craniofacial defects. We show that MEF2C is required for expression of the Dlx5, Dlx6,...
