The disease-related biological functions of PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) and underlying molecular mechanisms

Abstract More than a decade ago, PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA) was discovered almost simultaneously by four different research groups. The length of this type of single stranded noncoding RNA is 24~31 nucleotides (nt), with most of the piRNAs fall into the range of 29~30 nt. PiRNAs form specific RNA-...
