Description for MIRNA Regulation of the Translational Machinery
Hardback. This book is dedicated to understanding how miRNAs affect translation. It includes chapters representing work in plants and Caenorhabditis elegans, the biological systems that originally led to the discovery of small interfering RNAs. Editor(s): Rhoads, Robert E. Series: Progress in Molecular and Subcellular Biology. Num Pages: 125 pages, 19 black & white illustrations, 4 colour illustrations, 4 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PSB; PSF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 13. Weight in Grams: 385.
An odd and unexpected finding was reported by the laboratory of Richard Jorgensen in 1990: expression of extra copies of the gene encoding chalone synthase in petunias turned off the endogenous chalone synthase gene. An observation that appeared totally unrelated was made by the laboratory of Victor Ambrose in 1993: a gene in Caenorhabditis elegans, lin-4, controlled the timing of larval development but did not encode a protein. Rather, it expressed two small RNAs that were complementary to the 3'-untranslated region of the lin-14 gene in a region that had previously been shown to repress expression of the LIN-14 protein. ...
