چکیده

Germline cell fate is specified by localized OSK, VAS and other components in the pole plasm of the Drosophila embryo. New work shows that a PIWI-mediated miRNA pathway contributes to this process by regulating OSK and VAS localization.

Converging Future Internet, "Things", and Big Data: A Specification Following NovaGenesis Model

The convergence of Internet of “things” (IoT) with big data platforms and cloud computing is already happening. However, the vast majority, if not all the proposals are based on the current Internet technologies. The convergence of IoT, big data and cloud in “clean slate” architectures is an unexplored topic. In this article, we discuss this convergence considering the viewpoint of a “clean sla...

Sm proteins specify germ cell fate by facilitating oskar mRNA localization.

Sm and Sm-like proteins are RNA-binding factors found in all three domains of life. Eukaryotic Sm proteins play essential roles in pre-mRNA splicing, forming the cores of spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs). Recently, Sm proteins have been implicated in the specification of germ cells. However, a mechanistic understanding of their involvement in germline specification is lack...

Small noncoding RNAs in the germline.

Small noncoding RNAs have emerged as potent regulators of gene expression, especially in the germline. We review the biogenesis and regulatory function of three major small noncoding RNA pathways in the germline: The small interfering RNA (siRNA) pathway that leads to the degradation of target mRNAs, the microRNA (miRNA) pathway that mostly represses the translation of target mRNAs, and the new...
