The long and short of inverted repeat genes in animals: microRNAs, mirtrons and hairpin RNAs

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous transcripts that contain intramolecular double stranded RNA (dsRNA) and are processed by Dicer. Their mature products are ~21-24 nucleotides in length, and they collectively regulate a broad network of endogenous transcripts. A subset of animal miRNAs are produced f...
