Herpesvirus of Turkeys (Meleagridis Herpesvirus 1) Encodes a Functional MicroRNA-221 Homolog with High Sequence Conservation
Herpesviruses account for most of the known virus-encoded miRNAs. Herpesvirus of turkey (HVT), a non-pathogenic avian herpesvirus used as an avian vaccine and viral vector, encodes 28 mature miRNAs. This included HVT-miR-H14-3p that showed almost identical sequence to gga-miR-221, suggesting that it...
