miR-202 drives medaka fertility by targeting antagonistic Yap-dependent transcriptional regulators <i>tead3b</i> and <i>vgll4b</i> in a sex-dependent manner
2026-02-13
Abstract excerpt
How miRNAs can sometimes drive major organism-level phenotypes by targeting a single gene and by triggering limited changes in mRNA levels remains poorly understood, especially in vertebrates. In medaka, the knockout of miR-202-5p, a gonad-specific miRNA in vertebrates, leads to impaired male and female fertility, including drastically reduced egg production and low developmental success. Here we show that miR-202...
