作为非编码小RNA,microRNA主要在转录后水平调控基因表达和蛋白翻译。在植物中microRNAs广泛参与植物生长各个过程。该研究综述了microRNA在植物中的合成过程及靶基因鉴定,对microRNA的组织发育及逆境调控方面的最新研究进展也作了较为详细的阐述。
As small non-coding RNAs,microRNAs regulate gene expression and protein translation in post-transcriptional level.microRNAs have emerged as master regulators of plant development.In this review,synthetic process of microRNA and target genes identification was introduced.This review also provided a coherent set of research progress in the aspect of plant development and stress regulation.
