Genetic variants in microRNA genes: impact on microRNA expression, function and disease
MicroRNAs are important regulators of gene expression and like any other gene, their coding sequences are subject to genetic variation. Variants in microRNA genes can have profound effects on miRNA functionality at all levels, including microRNA transcription, maturation and target specificity, and...
