Summary

Automatic Translation

We developed an intronic microRNA biogenesis reporter assay to be used in cells in vitro with four plasmids: one with intronic miRNA, one with the target, one to overexpress a regulatory protein, and one for Renilla luciferase. The miRNA was processed and could control luciferase expression by binding to the target sequence.
