From: Drosophila melanogaster retrotransposon and inverted repeat-derived endogenous siRNAs are differentially processed in distinct cellular locations

Fig. 8

EsiRNAs are differnentially processed in D. melanogaster cells. Data support a model in which double stranded retroTn transcripts are retained and processed to esiRNAs in the nucleus while RNAs containing inverted repeats are exported and processed in the cytoplasm. Dcr2 interacts with the N-terminal 271 amino acids of Symplekin in the nucleus, but not in the cytoplasm
