This project focuses on the role of microRNAs in the starlet sea anemone, a model organism for studying early animal development. It aims to understand the expression patterns and functions of these small RNAs to shed light on their evolutionary significance.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are RNAs of ~21-24 nucleotides with pivotal regulatory roles in various developmental and physiological pathways.
They inhibit the translation of mRNAs and thus constitute a “tuning” system for controlling post-transcriptional expression.
While the understanding of miRNAs function in bilaterians such as flies, nematodes and mammals is expanding rapidly, little is known about miRNAs in other animals.
The starlet sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis is a rising model which enable…
