Increasing cell density globally enhances the biogenesis of Piwi-interacting RNAs in Bombyx mori germ cells. [PDF]
Piwi proteins and their bound Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are predominantly expressed in the germline and play crucial roles in germline development by silencing transposons and other targets.
