Sometimes, however, this regulatory paradigm inverts, and a target RNA triggers degradation of a microRNA. This target-directed microRNA degradation (TDMD) requires ZSWIM8. Zswim8-/- mice exhibit reduced growth and perinatal lethality, accompanied by stabilization of >40 microRNAs. Nonetheless, studies of TDMD function in mammals have been limited because only two TDMD-triggering RNAs have been identified in mice. Here, we computationally identify and validate five new TDMD-triggering sites in mouse models. One site in Atp6v1g1 and two in Lpar4 direct degradation of miR-335-3p, showing that in mammals, two sites in the same transcript, and multiple sites in different transcripts, can collaborate to destabilize a microRNA. Moreover, sites in Plagl1 and Lrrc58 direct degradation of miR-322 and miR-503, respectively. Mice lacking the Plagl1 and Lrrc58 sites were smaller, demonstrating that target-directed degradation of miR-322 and miR-503 promotes growth. Both miR-335-3p and Plagl1 are maternally imprinted, implying their participation in parental conflict, but their corresponding triggers or target microRNA partner are not imprinted. Thus, 3¢ UTRs can participate in parental conflict not only by regulating protein production but also directly by engaging TDMD to access an additional layer of regulation within a network of imprinted and biallelic genes.2026/04/08GSE318670GSM9500312GSM9500301GSM9500300GSM9500311GSM9500310GSM9500299GSM9500298GSM9500297GSM9500296GSM9500295GSM9500294GSM9500309GSM9500308GSM9500307GSM9500306GSM9500305GSM9500304GSM9500303GSM9500302GSM9500293GSM950029217021318670Mus musculus[41871909]
