Abstract excerpt
In plants and animals, gene expression can be down-regulated at the posttranscriptional level by microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small endogenous RNA. Comparative analysis of miRNA content across species indicates continuous birth and death of these loci in the course of evolution. However, little...
