MicroRNA trimming in the nervous system by Lee, Li Ming

“…MicroRNAs are small, single-stranded RNAs about 22 nucleotides long which are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of mRNAs. MicroRNAs base-pair with regions on the 3’ UTR of target mRNAs which show partial complementarity to microRNA sequence and downregulate them by translational repression or mRNA cleavage. …”
