Expert Solution
Step 1

INTRODUCTION

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small, single-stranded non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. They are known to play an important role in gene regulation and diverse biological processes such as development, proliferation, differentiation, cell cycle progression, apoptosis, and stress responses. miRNAs are known to be involved in various diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological disorders. miRNAs interact with their target mRNAs through base-pairing and induce degradation or inhibit translation of the target mRNA, thereby controlling its expression.

 

Aim:

To determine the positive and negative controls for the experiment.
