Definition
A translation repressor activity that acts by base-pairing with an mRNA. The binding can result in targeting the mRNA for degradation or interfering with mRNA translation, hence resulting in posttranscriptional gene silencing. Source: GOC:BHF_miRNA, PMID:18197166, PMID:20533884, GOC:BHF
Comment
This term is intended for microRNAs that act by base-pairing with a target mRNA.
