C-met is an oncogene that contributes to the development of certain cancers by triggering cell division and tumor growth. in a 2009 article, yan and colleagues found regions in the 3' untranslated region of c-met mrna complementary to microrna-1/206. in addition, higher levels of microrna-1/206 were associated with slower cell proliferation. what is a likely explanation for the inverse correlation between microrna-1/206 and cell proliferation?
a. microrna-1/206 stabilizes c-met mrna, leading to enhanced translation.
b. microrna-1/206 codes for a protein that directly binds to and inhibits c-met protein.
c. microrna-1/206 codes for a tumor suppressor protein that directly inhibits cell proliferation.
d. microrna-1/206 targets c-met mrna for destruction via risc.
