CRISPR/cas9, a novel genomic tool to knock down microRNA in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract excerpt

MicroRNAs are small and non-coding RNA molecules with the master role in regulation of gene expression at post-transcriptional/translational levels. Many methods have been developed for microRNA loss-of-function study, such as antisense inhibitors and sponges; however, the robustness, specificity, and stability of these traditional strategies are not highly satisfied. CRISPR/cas9 system is emerging as a novel...
