This article makes a valuable contribution to the field by uncovering a molecular mechanism for miRNA intracellular retention, mediated by the interaction of PCBP2, SYNCRIP, and specific miRNA motifs.

Proteins are the infinitely varied chemicals that make cells work, and science has a pretty good idea how they are made. But ...

A strategy that analyzes the structural properties of RNA could help identify regions that are promising targets for antiviral drugs.
