piRNAs and Aubergine cooperate with Wispy poly(A) polymerase to stabilize mRNAs in the germ plasm

In Drosophila embryos, Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) loaded into the PIWI protein Aubergine target and destabilize maternal mRNAs. Here, the authors provide evidence that piRNAs and Aubergine cooperate with the Wispy poly(A) polymerase to stabilize these mRNAs in the germ plasm.
