Germ granule dysfunction is a hallmark and mirror of Piwi mutant sterility

Piwi deficiency results in sterility and is associated with transposon expression and genomic instability. Here the authors show that sterility of C. elegans Piwi prg-1 mutant is not associated with transposon-induced DNA damage but is associated with and is phenocopied by dysfunction of germ granul...
