Conserved MicroRNA miR-8/miR-200 and Its Target USH/FOG2 Control Growth by Regulating PI3K

How body size is determined is a long-standing question in biology, yet its regulatory mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, we find that a conserved microRNA miR-8 and its target, USH, regulate body size in Drosophila. miR-8 null flies are smaller in size and defective in insulin signaling in fa...
