PIWI Takes a Giant Step.

Yibei Xiao1, Ailong Ke2.   

Abstract

piRNA guides the action of PIWI proteins to silence deleterious transposons in animal reproductive tissues. Biogenesis of piRNA-induced silencing complex (piRISC) involves a multi-step process. In this issue, Matsumoto et al. report the first crystal structure of a PIWI-clade protein displaying a guide RNA, ready for action.
