The primary target of let-7 microRNA.
The let-7 miRNA (microRNA) is an essential regulator of development from nematode worms to humans. Altered expression of let-7 results in larval arrest or lethality in Caenorhabditis elegans. Likewise, under- or over-expression of let-7 in human cells can result in cellular overproliferation or halted cell division respectively. Thus the biogenesis of this critical miRNA is controlled at multip...
متن کاملEvolution of the let-7 microRNA Family
The increase of bodyplan complexity in early bilaterian evolution is correlates with the advent and diversification of microRNAs. These small RNAs guide animal development by regulating temporal transitions in gene expression involved in cell fate choices and transitions between pluripotency and differentiation. One of the two known microRNAs whose origins date back before the bilaterian ancest...

متن کاملRAS Oncogene in Brain Tumors, Let-7 MicroRNA Involvement
RAS oncogenes are master regulators of cancers. Somatic mutation in KRAS, HRAS and NRAS genes account for approximately 30% of human cancers. KRAS is the most frequently mutated isoform in RAS-driven cancers. Brain cancers are RAS-driven cancers despite have no RAS mutation or amplification and its pivotal role in brain tumorigenesis has been well documented. Indeed, it’s generally accepted tha...
متن کاملRAS Is Regulated by the let-7 MicroRNA Family
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are regulatory RNAs found in multicellular eukaryotes, including humans, where they are implicated in cancer. The let-7 miRNA times seam cell terminal differentiation in C. elegans. Here we show that the let-7 family negatively regulates let-60/RAS. Loss of let-60/RAS suppresses let-7, and the let-60/RAS 3'UTR contains multiple let-7 complementary sites (LCSs), restricting re...
