WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr3774

• Pattern: When normalized to U6 expression, let-7 RNA reached half-maximal expression at about the L4 stage.
• Primary Identifier: Expr3774
• Remark: Previous studies did not detect the four let-7 family members until the L3 stage, but earlier expression of all four microRNAs was detected by enhancing the sensitivity of detection.
