Abstract excerpt
MiPEPs are microproteins encoded by primary transcripts of microRNAs (pri-miRNAs). Initially identified in plants, we recently characterized a miPEP in Drosophila melanogaster, named miPEP8, which is involved in the regulation of wing size. However, mechanisms at play are unknown. In the present study, we take advantage of the Drosophila cell line Schneider 2 (S2) to further investigate miPEP8 function at the...
