Abstract excerpt
Embryonic stem cell (ESC)-specific microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in the maintenance of pluripotency and self-renewal but the complete network between these miRNAs and their broad range of target genes still remains elusive. Here we demonstrate that miR-290 cluster, the most abundant miRNA family in ESCs, targets the NF-κB subunit p65 (also known as RelA) by repressing its translation. Forced expression...
