Researchers report the function of GTSF1 in germ cells. The study shows that GTSF1 is an essential factor for secondary piRNA biogenesis probably through the step where PIWI-piRNA complexes grasp and/or stabilize the target RNA. The discovery gives important insights on how male germ cells avoid the genome instability caused by excessive retrotransposition.
