a must read for retrovirus, ERV, piRNA and transposon aficionados. see also recent work from the group of @astridhaase.bsky.social on the importance of transposon insertions downstream of host genes for for piRNA-based immunity.
I am thrilled to share our story online at @cellpress.bsky.social . Big thanks to all authors: Zhiping, Bill, @lubanlab.bsky.social, Keith & bluesky-less!
