Competition for XPO5 binding between Dicer mRNA, pre-miRNA and viral RNA regulates human Dicer levels
Exportin-5 is involved in microRNA precursor nuclear export. Dicer mRNA is now found to compete with pre-miRNAs for exportin-5 binding, suggesting that cytoplasmic levels of Dicer and its pre-miRNA substrate e...

Protocol
MicroRNAs in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 Infection
Initially reported for Caenorhabditis elegans, microRNA (miRNA) has been shown to regulate gene expression in plants, flies, and mammals (1,2). Recently, findings of miRNA have been extended to viruses (3,4). Her...

Article
siRNA, miRNA and HIV: promises and challenges
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) and microRNA (miRNA) are small RNAs of 18-25 nucleotides (nt) in length that play important roles in regulating gene expression. They are incorporated into an RNA-induced silencin...
