Comparative transcriptome profiling of dairy goat microRNAs from dry period and peak lactation mammary gland tissues.

<h4>Background</h4>MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNA molecules that serve as important post-transcriptional gene expression regulators by targeting messenger RNAs for post-transcriptional endonucleolytic cleavage or translational inhibition. miRNAs play important roles in many b...
