Published in 2021 at "Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: RNA"

DOI: 10.1002/wrna.1640

Abstract: RNA interference (RNAi) technology has been used for almost two decades to study gene functions and in therapeutic approaches. It uses cellular machinery and small, designed RNAs in the form of synthetic small interfering RNAs… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Cell reports"

DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2018.12.054

Abstract: SUMMARY MicroRNA (miRNA) processing begins with Drosha cleavage, the fidelity of which is critical for downstream processing and mature miRNA target specificity. To understand how pri-miRNA sequence and structure influence Drosha cleavage, we studied the… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Clinical and Experimental Hypertension"

DOI: 10.1080/10641963.2018.1469643

Abstract: ABSTRACT MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of noncoding small RNAs which regulate gene expression through post-transcriptional repression or degradation of messenger RNA. They play very important roles in various biological processes including growth, differentiation, and… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "RNA"

DOI: 10.1261/rna.065862.118

Abstract: The Microprocessor complex, consisting of an RNase III DROSHA and the DGCR8 dimer, cleaves primary microRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs) to initiate microRNA (miRNA) maturation. Pri-miRNAs are stem-loop RNAs, and ∼79% of them contain at least one… read more here.
