Abstract
Virus-host interactions highlight key regulatory steps in the control of gene expression. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate protein production via base pairing with mRNAs. Both DNA and RNA viruses have evolved mechanisms to degrade, boost, or hijack cellular miRNAs to benefit the viral life cycle. This minireview focuses on recent discoveries in virus-host miRNA interactions.Mesh:
