Abstract
MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNAs that post-transcriptionally 'fine-tune' mRNA expression, and in recent years they have been discovered at an ever-increasing pace in all metazoan life forms from plants to people and, most importantly for virologists, viruses. MicroRNA profiling has made great progress in revealing a role for microRNAs in embryogenesis, cellular differentiation and cancer.
