Degradation of cellular mir-27 by a novel, highly abundant viral transcript is important for efficient virus replication in vivo.

Cytomegaloviruses express large amounts of viral miRNAs during lytic infection, yet, they only modestly alter the cellular miRNA profile. The most prominent alteration upon lytic murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) infection is the rapid degradation of the cellular miR-27a and miR-27b. Here, we report tha...
