PS:Q:Post-xl mods of Ago? A:By phosphorylation, for RNA loading (supress reg.), also in nucleolar Ago. 'We're v. interested' #AACR15

11:50am April 20th 2015 via Hootsuite

PS:Q:6,7 vs 8mer variation? Editing? A:Happens sometimes in miRNA targets, not common. Most muts mediated in RNA is in DNA (3' UTR) #AACR15

11:49am April 20th 2015 via Hootsuite

PS:Q:Effect of cleavage of target? A:Many cases miRNAs supp translation via de-adenylation, degradation (~20%, sometimes 2x) #AACR15
