Screening of microRNAs controlling body fat in Drosophila melanogaster and identification of miR-969 and its target, Gr47b.

Screening of microRNAs controlling body fat in Drosophila melanogaster and identification of miR-969 and its target, Gr47b.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-protein coding RNAs and post-transcriptionally regulate cellular gene expression. In animal development, miRNAs play essential roles such as stem cell maintenance, organogenesis, and apoptosis. Using gain-of-function (GOF) screening with 160 miRNA lines in Drosophila...
