Lin28: A MicroRNA Regulator with a Macro Role

Lin28, a highly conserved RNA-binding protein, has emerged as a modulator of the processing of the let-7 microRNA. This role for Lin28 has important implications for our mechanistic understanding of pluripotency, the timing of development, and oncogenesis.
