A mouse Piwi-family <protein> participating in germ-<cell> <piRNA> biogenesis and transposon control.
Its associated guide <RNAs> contribute sequence information for recognition of transposon-related material. Repression can involve both RNA-level and chromatin-associated outputs, depending on developmental stage and partner factors. <A piRNA Pathway Primed by Individual Transposons Is Linked to De Novo DNA Methylation in Mice by Alexei A. Aravin and others>[2008, germline piRNA pathway and methylation]{ref}
