Genetic variation and RNA structure regulate microRNA biogenesis

2017 
A single variant in mir-30c-1 found in breast and gastric cancer patients leads to increased levels of mature miRNA. Here the authors show that this variant alters the RNA structure of this pri-miRNA leading to enhanced binding of SRSF3 and increased Drosha-mediated processing.
