Lin28 prevents the processing of pre-let-7 RNAs, but it is not clear where the Lin28 RNA binding domains interact with the RNA. The NMR structure of the Lin28 zinc knuckles with a short RNA motif reveals that each knuckle interacts with an AG dinucleotide, allowing the determination of a consensus motif for pre-let-7 recognition.
Lin28 inhibits...
