Altered miRNA repertoire in the simplified chordate, Oikopleura dioica.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Jun 2008

Fu Xianghui, Adamski Marcin, Thompson Eric M

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies reveal correlation between microRNA (miRNA) innovation and increased developmental complexity. This is exemplified by dramatic expansion of the miRNA inventory in vertebrates, a lineage where genome duplication has played a significant evolutionary role. Urochordates, the closest extant group to the vertebrates, exhibit an opposite trend to genome and morphological simplification. We show that the...
