MicroRNAs control mRNA fate by compartmentalization based on 3′ UTR length in male germ cells
12 Jun 2017
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression can be achieved through the control of mRNA stability, cytoplasmic compartmentalization, 3' UTR length and translational efficacy. Spermiogenesis, a process through which haploid male germ cells differentiate into spermatozoa, represents an ideal model for studying post-transcriptional regulation in vivo because it involves a large number of...
