Role of Microornas in Tumroigenesis and their Modulation by Versican 3' Untranslated Region
MicroRNA is a single-stranded RNA molecule of about 22 nucleotides in length and is expressed endogenously. It functions as a gene regulator by pairing imperfectly with 3’ untranslated region (3’UTR) of target mRNAs, leading to translational inhibition. MicroRNA is implicated in many regulatory path...
