Abstract

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are transcribed as long primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) by RNA polymerase II. Plant pri-miRNAs encode regulatory peptides called miPEPs, which specifically enhance the transcription of the pri-miRNA from which they originate. However, paradoxically, whereas miPEPs have been ident...
