Abstract excerpt
There is a growing recognition that noncoding RNAs (ncRNA) play an important role in the regulation of gene expression. A class of small (19-22 nt) ncRNAs, known as microRNAs (miRs), have received a great deal of attention lately because of their ability to repress gene expression through a unique posttranscriptional 3'-untranslated region (UTR) mechanism. The objectives of the current study were to identify miRs...
