Nascent pri-miRNAs and HYL1 act as a scaffold to recruit transcriptional regulators to miRNA loci
The Plant Cell: In a NutshellPark et al. reveal how a microprocessor component and a histone deacetylase act in microRNA biogenesis under stress.
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs with a length of 21–24 nucleotides that play critical roles in mRNA silencing and translational suppression. In plants, miRNAs…
