Atomistic Mechanism of MicroRNA Translation Upregulation via Molecular Dynamics Simulations

MicroRNAs are endogenous 23–25 nt RNAs that play important gene-regulatory roles in animals and plants. Recently, miR369-3 was found to upregulate translation of TNFα mRNA in quiescent (G0) mammalian cell lines. Knock down and immunofluorescence experiments suggest that microRNA-protein complexes (w...
