Abstract excerpt
The let-7 microRNA (miRNA) is highly conserved across animal phyla and generally regulates cellular differentiation and developmental timing pathways. In Caenorhabditis elegans, the mature let-7 miRNA starts to accumulate in the last stages of larval development where it directs cellular differentiation programs required for adult fates. Here, we show that expression of the let-7 gene in C. elegans is under...
