MicroRNA enrichment among short ‘ultraconserved’ sequences in insects
MicroRNAs are short (∼22 nt) regulatory RNA molecules that play key roles in metazoan development and have been implicated in human disease. First discovered in Caenorhabditis elegans, over 2500 microRNAs have been isolated in metazoans and plants; it has been estimated that there may be more than a...
