miRNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene silencing |
ID (Ontology) |
GO:0035195 (Gene Ontology) |
Definition |
A post-transcriptional gene silencing pathway in which regulatory microRNAs (miRNAs) elicit silencing of specific target genes. miRNAs are endogenous 21-24 nucleotide small RNAs processed from stem-loop RNA precursors (pre-miRNAs). Once incorporated into a RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), miRNAs can downregulate protein production by either of two posttranscriptional mechanisms: endonucleolytic cleavage of the RNA (often mRNA) or mRNA translational repression, usually accompanied by poly-A tail shortening and subsequent degradation of the mRNA. miRNAs are present in all the animals and in plants, whereas siRNAs are present in lower animals and in plants.[ PubMed:14744438 PubMed:15066275 PubMed:15066283 PubMed:23209154 PubMed:23985560 PubMed:28379604 ] |
