Human Gene Set: GOBP_TRANSPOSABLE_ELEMENT_SILENCING_BY_PIRNA_MEDIATED_HETEROCHROMATIN_FORMATION

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_TRANSPOSABLE_ELEMENT_SILENCING_BY_PIRNA_MEDIATED_HETEROCHROMATIN_FORMATION

Standard name GOBP_TRANSPOSABLE_ELEMENT_SILENCING_BY_PIRNA_MEDIATED_HETEROCHROMATIN_FORMATION
Systematic name M48527
Brief description A transposable element silencing mechanism in which a Piwi-associated RNA (piRNA) triggers heterochromatin assembly. Heterochromatin is a chromatin conformation that is refractory to transcription. [PMID:32381626, PMID:32674113]
