Luciferase reporter assay for the interaction between dev-miR-D8-3p and US1 gene. a The seed sequence of dev-miR-D8-3p and its target site in 3’UTR of the US1 mRNA are shown in red, seven nucleotides were mutated in 3’UTR of the US1 mRNA (underlined). b Activity of the luciferase gene linked to the 3’UTR of the US1 mRNA. The wild-type pmirGLO-WT-US1 (WT-US1) and mutant pmirGLO-MU-US1 (MU-US1) were respectively transfected into COS7 cells with the dev-miR-D8-3p (miR-D8-3p) mimic or the negative control (miR-NC). Luciferase activities were measured after 36 h. The data were presented as the means and the standard deviations (SDs) of separate transfections (n = 3). Statistical significance was analyzed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The significant differences (p < 0.05) are indicated as single star
