microRNA profiling in the zoonotic parasite Echinococcus canadensis using a high-throughput approach
5 Feb 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNAs, are key regulators of gene expression at post-transcriptional level and play essential roles in fundamental biological processes such as development and metabolism. The particular developmental and metabolic characteristics of cestode parasites highlight the importance of studying miRNA gene regulation in these organisms. Here, we perform a...
