MicroRNAs are short non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level by guiding effector complexes to complementary sequences in target transcripts. In insects ...

MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNA molecules that fine-tune gene expression by binding to messenger RNAs and directing their degradation or translational repression. In pancreatic β-cells, a ...

PHILADELPHIA -- Researchers long thought that only one strand of a double-stranded microRNA can silence genes. Though recent evidence has challenged that dogma, it's unclear what the other strand does ...

MicroRNAs are essential for Purkinje cells to develop their characteristically elaborate dendritic arbors. When Scripps Research scientists temporarily turned off microRNA function during development, ...

Aging-related cognitive decline is an early symptom of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, and on its own can have substantial consequences on an individual's ability to perform important ...
