Preferred Label : MicroRNAs;
MeSH definition : Small double-stranded, non-protein coding RNAs, 21-25 nucleotides in length generated
from single-stranded microRNA gene transcripts by the same RIBONUCLEASE III, Dicer,
that produces small interfering RNAs (RNA, SMALL INTERFERING). They become part of
the RNA-INDUCED SILENCING COMPLEX and repress the translation (TRANSLATION, GENETIC)
of target RNA by binding to homologous 3'UTR region as an imperfect match. The small
temporal RNAs (stRNAs), let-7 and lin-4, from C. elegans, are the first 2 miRNAs discovered,
and are from a class of miRNAs involved in developmental timing.;
