Co-option of the piRNA Pathway for Germline-Specific Alternative Splicing of C. elegans TOR
Many eukaryotic genes contain embedded antisense transcripts and repetitive sequences of unknown function. We report that male germline-specific expression of an antisense transcript contained in an intron of C. elegans Target of Rapamycin (TOR, let-363) is associated with (1) accumulation of endo-s...
