qPCR NEWS - November 2011 - focus on mirtrons --------------------------------------------------------------- Dear researcher, dear Gene Quantification page reader, Our newsletter informs about the latest news in quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR and RT-qPCR), which are compiled and summarised on the Gene Quantification homepage. The focus of this newsletter issue is: * Introducing the mirtron - http://mirtron.gene-quantification.info * MIQE qPCR APP for IOS and Android is available - http://MIQE.gene-quantif= ication.info * MIQE guidelines - online translation service to CHINESE, JAPANESE, KOREAN and RUSSIAN If this newsletter is not displayed correctly by your email client, please use following http://qPCRnews.gene-quantification.info ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= -- Mirtrons were first identified in Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans and are a type of microRNA that are located in the introns of the mRNA encoding genes. Mirtrons are alternative precursors for microRNA biogenesis. The short hairpin introns use splicing to bypass DROSHA cleavage, which is otherwise essential for the generation of canonical animal microRNAs. Mirtrons arise from the spliced-out introns and are known to function like classical microRNAs (miRs) and regulate gene expression, by either mRNA destabilisation, inhibition of the translation or target mRNA cleavage. =3D> http://mirtron.gene-quantification.info selected mirtron papers: MicroRNA - Introducing the mirtron Patrick Goymer, Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology 2007 (8): 597 And Now Introducing Mammalian Mirtrons Shih-Peng Chan and Frank J.
