ABSTRACT
Most eukaryotes employ a combination of transcriptional and post-transcriptional silencing mechanisms to suppress transposons, yet ciliates employ a more extreme approach. They separate germline and somatic functions into distinct nuclei, enabling the elimination of transposons from the active somatic genome through diverse small RNA-mediated genome rearrangement pathways during sexual processes.
