Biogenesis of plant microRNAs (miRNAs) takes place in nuclear dicing bodies (D-bodies),
where the ribonulease III-type enzyme Dicer-like 1 (DCL1) processes primary transcripts of …

microRNAs (miRNAs) are 20–24 nucleotide RNAs that regulate a variety of developmental
and metabolic processes. The accumulation of miRNAs in vivo can be controlled at multiple …

Plant microRNA (miRNA) processing requires at least two cleavage steps of respective
precursors. The first cleavage step is from pri-miRNA to pre-miRNA, and the second …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in gene regulation. In Arabidopsis, mature
miRNAs are processed from primary miRNA transcripts by the Dicing complex that contains …

MicroRNAs originate from primary transcripts containing hairpin structures. The levels of
mature miR156 influence the leaf number prior to flowering in the life cycle of plants. To …

Plant microRNAs (miRNAs) have an impact in the regulation of several biological processes
such as development, growth and metabolism by negatively controlling gene expression at …

Many evolutionarily conserved microRNAs (miRNAs) in plants regulate transcription factors
with key functions in development. Hence, mutations in the core components of the miRNA …

Arabidopsis thaliana HYL1 is a nuclear double-stranded RNA-binding protein involved in
the maturation of pri-miRNAs. A quantitative real-time PCR platform for parallel …

The regulation of microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis is crucial for maintaining plant
homeostasis under biotic and abiotic stress. The crosstalk between the RNA polymerase II …

Endogenously-encoded microRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small regulatory RNAs that
modulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. In plants, miRNAs have …
