3′ Sequences required for target recognition by the piRNA–PIWI complex. (A) Nucleotide sequences of piRNA-I derivatives possessing identical (green) and different (blue) nucleotides to those of a complementary sequence of Importin-5 (red). (B) Expression levels of piRNA-J in BmN-4 cells transfected with pre-piRNA-I derivatives. The piRNA-J amounts were measured by RT-qPCR and normalized to those of let-7. Data shown are mean ± standard deviation (n = 4). (*) P < 0.05 with the Mann-Whitney U test followed by the Benjamini-Hochberg correction method to control the false discovery rate.
