MIR4707 Gene

HGNC Family Non-coding RNAs
Name microRNA 4707
Description microRNAs (miRNAs) are short (20-24 nt) non-coding RNAs that are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in multicellular organisms by affecting both the stability and translation of mRNAs. miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II as part of capped and polyadenylated primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) that can be either protein-coding or non-coding. The primary transcript is cleaved by the Drosha ribonuclease III enzyme to produce an approximately 70-nt stem-loop precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA), which is further cleaved by the cytoplasmic Dicer ribonuclease to generate the mature miRNA and antisense miRNA star (miRNA*) products. The mature miRNA is incorporated into a RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which recognizes target mRNAs through imperfect base pairing with the miRNA and most commonly results in translational inhibition or destabilization of the target mRNA. The RefSeq represents the predicted microRNA stem-loop. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

However, its activity is counteracted by a novel long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), LOC100129973, which functions as a molecular sponge. By sequestering miR-4707-5p (as well as miR-4767), this lncRNA upregulates key anti-apoptotic regulators—namely, Apoptosis Inhibitor 5 (API5) and BCL2 like 12 (BCL2L12)—thereby mitigating apoptosis induced by serum and FGF-2 starvation."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn the context of neurodevelopment, a distinct isoform, miR-4707-3p, plays a crucial role in brain formation.
