Sex-Biased miRNAs in the Gonads of Adult Chinese Alligator (Alligator sinensis) and Their Potential Roles in Sex Maintenance

Sex-Biased miRNAs in the Gonads of Adult Chinese Alligator (Alligator sinensis) and Their Potential Roles in Sex Maintenance

MicroRNA (miRNA) is a category of single-stranded non-coding small RNA (sRNA) that regulates gene expression by targeting mRNA. It plays a key role in the temperature-dependent sex determination of Chinese alligator (Alligator sinensis), a reptile whose sex is determined solely by the temperature du...
