New online! How classical genetics uncovered key determinants of TE silencing
Nature Reviews Genetics, Published online: 25 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41576-026-00951-5In this Journal Club, Emilie Brasset highlights a 1995 publication by Prud’homme et al., who designed a clever genetic assay to identify a gene important for TE silencing, which provided a crucial foundation for later studies to unravel the underlying mechanisms.
