MicroRNA-mediated gene silencing can occur by either target mRNA degradation or translational repression. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Dallaire et al. (2018) show in C. elegans that tissue-specific composition of the silencing complex, miRISC, plays a major role in determining the fate of target mRNAs.
microRNA 介导的基因沉默可以通过靶 mRNA 降解或翻译抑制来发生。在本期《发育细胞》中,Dallaire 等人(2018 年)在秀丽隐杆线虫中表明,沉默复合物 miRISC 的组织特异性组成在决定靶 mRNA 的命运方面起着主要作用。
