Identification of miPEP133 as a novel tumor-suppressor microprotein encoded by miR-34a pri-miRNA

Abstract Background Very few proteins encoded by the presumed non-coding RNA transcripts have been identified. Their cellular functions remain largely unknown. This study identifies the tumor-suppressor function of a novel microprotein encoded by the precursor of miR-34a. It consists of 133 amino ac...
