Hi David,
I've just looke at the definition of the new term you made and it reads a little odd;
"Shortening of the poly(A) tail of a nuclear-transcribed mRNA following miRNA to mRNA, resulting in destabilization of the mRNA and a redunction in the efficiency of its translation."
Is there a word missing around "following miRNA to mRNA" - "following miRNA binding to mRNA" perhaps?
Also 'reduction' is spelled wrong.
Thanks!
Rachael.
Thanks for spotting. Now fixed.
