Helical Defects in MicroRNA Influence Protein Binding by TAR RNA Binding Protein

BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. Their precursors have a globally A-form helical geometry, which prevents most proteins from identifying their nucleotide sequence. This suggests the hypothesis that local structural features (e.g., bulges...
