Event Description
Eukaryotic genome contains a large amount of DNA that is considered junk, such as satellite DNA and transposons. Recent work from our laboratory started hinting at their potential functions, and I will overview these recent discoveries in the context of germline immortality---the continuation of germ cells that supported the evolution of multicellular organisms for 1.5 billion years
