Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs essential for transposon silencing and germline integrity across metazoans. In many species, piRNA expression is sexually dimorphic, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying this sex specificity remain poorly understood. In Caenorhabditis elegans, sexually dimorph...

A protein design strategy is used that couples a structure-guided inverse-folding model with evolution-informed residue constraints to generate active, divergent variants of TnpB, a minimal CRISPR-Cas12-like nuclease, termed SynTnpBs, establishing a strategy for creating non-natural RNA-guided nucleases and conformatio...
