Osa-miR-397b precursor. miR-397 is a miRNA in rice, which is the most important grain with regard to human nutrition and provides more than one fifth of the calories consumed worldwide by humans, especially Asians. miR-397 can increase grain yield by downregulating its target. OsLAC, whose product is a laccase-like protein that we found to be involved in the sensitivity of plants to brassionsteroids.
miR-397 is a plant miRNA and has no target in human. It is safe and may be useful for synthetic biology to increase grain yield not only in rice but also in other cereal crops.
miR-397b belongs to the miR397 family of miRNAs, which are predicted to target mRNAs coding for laccases and beta-6 tubulin.
