Plant microRNAs: Biogenesis, Homeostasis, and Degradation
2019
Junli Wang | Jun Mei | Guodong Ren
MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of endogenous, tiny, non-coding RNAs, are master regulators of gene expression among most eukaryotes. Intracellular miRNA abundance is regulated under multiple levels of control including transcription, processing, RNA modification, RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) assembly, miRNA-target interaction, and turnover. In this review, we summarize our current understanding of the molecular components and mechanisms that influence miRNA biogenesis, homeostasis, and degradation in plants. We also make comparisons with findings from other organisms where necessary.
