The Lin28 protein, pre-let-7g RNA and related sequences used in this study. (A) Schematic representation of the primary structures of Lin28 and deletion fragments. The gray boxes delineate sequences of known RNA-binding motifs: a cold shock domain (CSD) and a pair of retroviral–type CCHC zinc-binding domains (ZBD1 and ZBD2). (B) Schematic representation of pre-let-7g, indicating the regions (gray boxes) from which TL-let-7g and duplex let-7g GNRA were derived. (C and D) Primary and secondary structures of the (C) duplex let-7g GNRA and (D) TL-let-7g. Nucleotides within the mature miRNA sequence are in blue and non-natural nucleotides are shown in lowercase. In (D), site-specific mutations of TL-let-7g are in red and regions that were replaced by alternative structured elements are boxed.
