How HTLV-1 may subvert miRNAs for persistence and transformation

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Distinct mechanisms are used by viruses to interact with cellular miRNAs. The role of microRNAs in viral replication and persistence ranges from viral-encoded microRNAs to suppressors of RNA interference. Viruses can also exploit cellular miRNAs for influencing c...
