MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in modulating gene expression at the posttranscriptional level. In postnatal oligodendrocyte lineage cells, the miRNA expression profile ("microRNAome") contains 43 miRNAs whose expression dynamically changes during the transition from A2B5(+) oligodendrocyte progenitor cells to premyelinating GalC(+) cells. The combination of microRNAome profiling with analyses of the oligodendrocyte transcriptome reveals a target bias for a class of miRNAs which includes ...[more]
