mRNA steht für Messenger-RNA

microRNA (miRNA) ist nicht dasselbe wie mRNA.

Details dazu sind hier zu finden. Die Arbeiten, für die es den Nobelpreis heute gab,
wurden vor 30 Jahren gemacht:

Gene regulation by microRNA, first revealed by Ambros and Ruvkun, has been at work for hundreds of millions of years. This mechanism has enabled the evolution of increasingly complex organisms. We know from genetic research that cells and tissues do not develop normally without microRNAs.

Abnormal regulation by microRNA can contribute to cancer, and mutations in genes coding for microRNAs have been found in humans, causing conditions such as congenital hearing loss, eye and skeletal disorders. Mutations in one of the proteins required for microRNA production result in the DICER1 syndrome, a rare but severe syndrome linked to cancer in various organs and tissues.

Ambros and Ruvkun’s seminal discovery in the small worm C. elegans was unexpected, and revealed a new dimension to gene regulation, essential for all complex life forms.

Aber es gibt ja hier im Board Experten, die sich besser damit auskennen.
