26(3):836-859.
PMID: 39747665
microRNAs (miRNAs) are important post-transcriptional regulators that activate silencing mechanisms by annealing to mRNA transcripts. While plant miRNAs match their targets with nearly-full complementarity leading to mRNA cleavage, miRNAs in...

PMID: 39163924
Apoptosis is a regulated cell death that depends on caspases. It has mainly been studied as a mechanism for the removal of unwanted cells. However, apoptotic cells can induce fate...
