    Description: Virally encoded microRNAs (miRNAs) have recently been discovered in herpesviruses. However, their biological roles are mostly unknown. We developed an algorithm for the prediction of miRNA targets and applied it to human cytomegalovirus miRNAs, resulting in the identification of the major histocompatibility complex class I-related chain B (MICB) gene as a top candidate target of hcmv-miR-UL112. MICB is a stress-induced ligand of the natural killer (NK) cell activating receptor NKG2D and is critical for the NK cell killing of virus-infected cells and tumor cells. We show that hcmv-miR-UL112 specifically down-regulates MICB expression during viral infection, leading to decreased binding of NKG2D and reduced killing by NK cells. Our results reveal a miRNA-based immunoevasion mechanism that appears to be exploited by human cytomegalovirus.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4283197/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4283197/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stern-Ginossar, Noam -- Elefant, Naama -- Zimmermann, Albert -- Wolf, Dana G -- Saleh, Nivin -- Biton, Moshe -- Horwitz, Elad -- Prokocimer, Zafnat -- Prichard, Mark -- Hahn, Gabriele -- Goldman-Wohl, Debra -- Greenfield, Caryn -- Yagel, Simcha -- Hengel, Hartmut -- Altuvia, Yael -- Margalit, Hanah -- Mandelboim, Ofer -- N01 AI030049/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- N01 AI30049/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- N01-30049/PHS HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Jul 20;317(5836):376-81.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Lautenberg Center for General and Tumor Immunology, Hebrew University Hadassah Medical School, Jerusalem, Israel.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17641203" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) genome was sequenced 20 years ago. However, like those of other complex viruses, our understanding of its protein coding potential is far from complete. We used ribosome profiling and transcript analysis to experimentally define the HCMV translation products and follow their temporal expression. We identified hundreds of previously unidentified open reading frames and confirmed a fraction by means of mass spectrometry. We found that regulated use of alternative transcript start sites plays a broad role in enabling tight temporal control of HCMV protein expression and allowing multiple distinct polypeptides to be generated from a single genomic locus. Our results reveal an unanticipated complexity to the HCMV coding capacity and illustrate the role of regulated changes in transcript start sites in generating this complexity.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3817102/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3817102/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stern-Ginossar, Noam -- Weisburd, Ben -- Michalski, Annette -- Le, Vu Thuy Khanh -- Hein, Marco Y -- Huang, Sheng-Xiong -- Ma, Ming -- Shen, Ben -- Qian, Shu-Bing -- Hengel, Hartmut -- Mann, Matthias -- Ingolia, Nicholas T -- Weissman, Jonathan S -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2012 Nov 23;338(6110):1088-93. doi: 10.1126/science.1227919.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cellular and Molecular Pharmacology, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisico, CA 94158, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23180859" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
