Impact of competition between precursor and mature microRNAs on stochastic gene expression

2026-01-03

Abstract excerpt

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key post-transcriptional regulators, processed from precursor miRNAs (pre-miRNAs) into mature miRNAs through nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins. Recent evidence shows that pre-miRNAs and mature miRNAs can compete for the same target mRNAs, yet the impact of this miRNA maturation-driven competition on gene expression noise remains unknown. We address this in widespread feedback motifs where bot...
