Vive la différence: biogenesis and evolution of microRNAs in plants and animals

Year: 2011

Type: review

Abstract: MicroRNAs are pervasive in both plants and animals, but many aspects of their biogenesis, function and evolution differ. We reveal how these differences contribute to characteristic features of microRNA evolution in the two kingdoms.
