This research focuses on understanding the regulation of microRNA turnover in plants, which is crucial for gene expression control. By screening for mutants, it aims to identify genes that influence the degradation of microRNAs during stress responses.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules regulating the expression of protein coding genes by targeting mRNAs.
Since they play key roles in development and in responses to both biotic and abiotic stresses, it is important that miRNAs are expressed at the right time and place.
Therefore there must be a mechanism to degrade miRNAs (miRNA turnover) and that mechanism itself must be carefully regulated to ensure that miRNAs are not present when their function is not required.
However, w…
