Small RNAs that function in a non-cell autonomous manner are becoming increasingly
recognized as regulatory molecules with the potential to transmit information between cells, …

Small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) are potential vectors at the interface between genes
and environment. We found that traumatic stress in early life altered mouse microRNA (miRNA) …

Transgenerational effects have wide-ranging implications for human health, biological
adaptation, and evolution; however, their mechanisms and biology remain poorly understood. …

Recently interest in multi-generational epigenetic phenomena have been fuelled by highly
reproducible intergenerational and transgenerational inheritance paradigms in several model …

In animals, small RNA molecules termed PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) silence transposable
elements (TEs), protecting the germline from genomic instability and mutation. piRNAs …

… p values were calculated using the unpaired t test (two-tailed). (E) Replication efficiency
of the leading-strand template G4 in rev1 mutants. Complementation is with full-length, …

We have previously reported that DT40 cells deficient in the Y-family polymerase REV1 are
defective in replicating G-quadruplex DNA. In vivo this leads to uncoupling of DNA synthesis …

… TE methylation is found in basal plants but the pattern of gene body methylation observed
in Arabidopsis is not obvious, with the exception of the pine P. tanae and Charophytes such as …

… Furthermore, overlapping RNAs mapping to complementary strands of the viral genome
showed the 2 nt 3ʹ overhang characteristic of Dicer products (p<10−9, χ2 test against a uniform …

… Interestingly, although we clearly identified miRNAs in P. varius, including many that are
widely … to identify a Piwi orthologue analysing draft transcriptome data from P. varius (S1 Text). …
