[HTML][HTML] TENT2, TUT4, and TUT7 selectively regulate miRNA sequence and abundance

A Yang, X Bofill-De Ros, R Stanton, TJ Shao… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
TENTs generate miRNA isoforms by 3'tailing. However, little is known about how tailing
regulates miRNA function. Here, we generate isogenic HEK293T cell lines in which TENT2 …
