UHRF1 suppresses retrotransposons and cooperates with PRMT5 and PIWI proteins in male germ cells

Retrotransposons are silenced by an epigenetic mechanism and piRNA pathway in the mammalian germline. Here, the authors report that UHRF1 suppresses retrotransposons by interacting with PRMT5 and PIWI proteins during spermatogenesis.
