The tudor domain protein Kumo is required to assemble the nuage and to generate germline piRNAs in Drosophila

We are submitting two small RNA libraries derived from ovarian tissue of mutant and heterozygous for the Kumo/Qin gene, required for the piRNA production in germline cells. In absence of Kumo/Qin, piRNA production is reduced and transposons are derepressed. Overall design: Analysis of piRNA production in Kumo/Qin mutants
