Back-spliced RNA from retrotransposon binds to centromere and regulates centromeric chromatin loops in maize.
In most plants, centromeric DNA contains highly repetitive sequences, including tandem repeats and retrotransposons; however, the roles of these sequences in the structure and function of the centromere are unclear. Here, we found that multiple RNA sequences from centromeric retrotransposons (CRMs)...
