متن کاملIntronic microRNAs: a crossroad in gene regulation.
Most human genes transcribed by RNA Pol II (polymerase II) contain short exons separated by long tracts of non-coding intronic sequences. In addition to their role in generating proteomic diversity through the process of alternative splicing, intronic sequences host many ncRNAs (non-coding RNAs), involved in various gene regulation processes. miRNAs (microRNAs) are short ncRNAs that mediate eit...
متن کاملProcessing of intronic microRNAs.
The majority of human microRNA (miRNA) loci are located within intronic regions and are transcribed by RNA polymerase II as part of their hosting transcription units. The primary transcripts are cleaved by Drosha to release approximately 70 nt pre-miRNAs that are subsequently processed by Dicer to generate mature approximately 22 nt miRNAs. It is generally believed that intronic miRNAs are rele...
متن کاملElucidation of IgH intronic enhancer functions via germ-line deletion.
Studies of chimeric mice demonstrated that the core Ig heavy chain (IgH) intronic enhancer (iEmu) functions in V(D)J and class switch recombination at the IgH locus. To more fully evaluate the role of this element in these and other processes, we generated mice homozygous for germ-line mutations in which the core sequences of iEmu (cEmu) were either deleted (cEmu(Delta/Delta) mice) or replaced ...
متن کاملMicrobiota Modulate Host Gene Expression via MicroRNAs
Microbiota are known to modulate host gene expression, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are importantly implicated in many cellular functions by post-transcriptionally regulating gene expression via binding to the 3'-untranslated regions (3'-UTRs) of the target mRNAs. However, a role for miRNAs in microbiota-host interactions remains unknown. Here we in...
