From: Stage-dependent piRNAs in chicken implicated roles in modulating male germ cell development
Potential stage-dependent syntenically conserved piRNA clusters shared between eutherian and chicken. The intergenic chicken piRNA cluster expressions were reported as piRPM at between (a) PRMT8 and TSPAN9; and (b) GADD45G and DIRAS2. These loci were reported syntenically conserved in eutherian by Chirn et al., and are respectively listed at (c) and (d) for comparison. Both human and mouse piRNA clusters are listed. Stage-enriched piRNA clusters from chicken blastodermal cells (BC), primordial germ cells (PGC), embryonic gonads from E11 and E14 (E11G and E14G), and adult testes (AT) are included. The novel syntenically conserved clusters between eutherian and chicken were revealed from our original piRNA datasets from embryonic gonads
