Evidence for a microRNA expansion in the bilaterian ancestor.

Understanding how animal complexity has arisen and identifying the key genetic components of this process is a central goal of evolutionary developmental biology. The discovery of microRNAs (miRNAs) as key regulators of development has identified a new set of candidates for this role. microRNAs are...
