MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNA molecules (~21-24 nt) that play a key role in eukaryotic gene expression regulation.In plants,the majority of microRNAs are encoded by independent transcription units transcribed by RNA polymerase Ⅱ.Primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) of miRNA genes (MIRs) undergo extensive co-transcriptional/post-transcriptional processing to generate mature miRNAs.The main player in plant pri-miRNA processing is the microprocessor,a multiprotein complex that cleaves primiRNAs in two consecutive steps,generating the stem-loop structure containing miRNA and miRNA* (pre-miRNA) in the first step,followed by the excision of a duplex composed of miRNA/miRNA* in the second cleavage reaction.The RNA duplexes are 2O methylated at their 3ends and exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm,where they are incorporated into the Argonaute-containing complex,RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex).miRNA* is removed while miRNA guides RISC to cognate mRNAs,leading to mRNA cleavage or translation inhibition (for review see Yu et al.,2017).
