GENETICS: Erasing MicroRNAs Reveals Their Powerful Punch
Jennifer Couzin
In a flurry of papers, three of which appear on pages 575, 604, and 608 of this issue of Science, four independent groups have for the first time deleted mouse genes for microRNAs, RNA molecules that can modulate gene behavior, with profound effects. (Read more.)
