Dokl Biochem Biophys. 2016 Mar;467(1):99-101. doi: 10.1134/S160767291602006X. Epub 2016 May 20.

Abstract

It was first shown that DNA damage induction in mitomycin C-treated HeLa cells leads to a change in the selection of 5p and 3p microRNA duplex strands in the formation of the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC).
