JF - Annals of Translational Medicine; Vol 4, No 19 (October 15, 2016): Annals of Translational Medicine Y2 - 2016 KW - N2 - It is well known that microRNAs (miRNAs) have recently emerged as multifaceted regulators of biological processes and thus of various diseases. miRNAs are small single-stranded non-coding RNAs that bind to their cognate messenger RNAs (mRNAs) via recognition of seed sequences, i.e., the 2 nd –8 th nucleotide of the miRNA. This binding can trigger mRNA degradation and translational repression leading to a decrease in the protein products encoded by the corresponding mRNA.
