Testis-expressed cluster of microRNAs 959-964 controls spermatid differentiation in Drosophila

Due to their regulatory potential, miRNAs are implicated in functioning of a broad range of biological pathways and processes. Here we investigate the functions of the miR-959-964 cluster expressed predominantly in testes o...
