An Abundant Class of Tiny RNAs with Probable Regulatory Roles in Caenorhabditis elegans

Nelson C. Lau , Lee P. Lim , Earl G. Weinstein +1 more

Two small temporal RNAs (stRNAs), lin-4 and let-7 , control developmental timing in Caenorhabditis elegans . We find that these two regulatory RNAs are members of a large class ...
