They bind to a complementary region in the transcribed gene to form doublestanded RNA molecules. These are silenced since they cannot be translated and often subsequently degraded by the cell.

Known MicroRNA - Gene Systems?

Yes. Below is a link to a review of ncRNA (non-coding RNAs) and their role in disease. There are many examples in this review in all sorts of diseases, one of which is miR-200, which is thought to pla …
