MiRNAs are noncoding RNAs of 20-24 nucleotides that function as post-transcriptional negative regulators of gene expression. MiRNA genes are usually transcribed by RNA polymerase II in the nucleus. Their initial products are pre-miRNAs which have cap sequences and polyA tails. The p53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator (TIGAR) was discovered through microarray analysis of gene expression following activation of p53. However, little is known about the effect of miR-144 on cell proliferation and apoptosis and how it interacts with TIGAR.
