microRNA-202 suppresses MYCN expression under the control of E2F1 in the neuroblastoma cell line LAN-5
6 Dec 2013
Abstract excerpt
microRNAs (miRNAs) are small non‑coding RNAs that regulate gene expression by binding to the untranslated regions (UTRs) of target mRNAs. Bioinformatic software predicted that MYCN, a gene overexpressed in aggressive neuroblastoma cells, is a target gene of miRNA‑202 (miR‑202) and that the promoter region of miR‑202 contains binding sites for the transcription factor E2F1. The aims of this study were to explore...
