Identification of novel miRNAs and miRNA dependent developmental shifts of gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana.
microRNAs (miRNAs) are small, endogenous RNAs of 20 approximately 25 nucleotides, processed from stem-loop regions of longer RNA precursors. Plant miRNAs act as negative regulators of target mRNAs predominately by slicing target transcripts, and a number of miRNAs play important roles in development...
