Abstract:
:Micro RNAs are a large family of noncoding RNAs of 21-22 nucleotides whose functions are generally unknown. Here a large subset of Drosophila micro RNAs is shown to be perfectly complementary to several classes of sequence motif previously demonstrated to mediate negative post-transcriptional regulation. These findings suggest a more general role for micro RNAs in gene regulation through the formation of RNA duplexes.

NATURE GENETICS文献大全abstract::Testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men and is notable for its high familial risks. So far, six loci associated with TGCT have been reported. From genome-wide association study (GWAS) analysis of 307,291 SNPs in 986 TGCT cases and 4,946 controls, we selected for follow-up 694 SNPs, whi...
