ame-let-7: Ame-let-7 is a microRNA (miRNA) that is differentially expressed in honeybee larvae, with queen larvae showing twice the expression level compared to worker bee larvae [PMC6942390]. This miRNA is a key player in the honeybee's immune signaling pathways, including IMD, JNK, and Toll pathways, and is involved in the regulation of antimicrobial peptide production [PMC8532292]. Ame-let-7, along with ame-miR-100 and ame-miR-125, is highly expressed in wing discs and located on the LG8 linkage group of the honeybee genome [PMC8532292]. It also appears on the same scaffold as ame-mir-100 within a cluster of miRNAs that are conserved across different animal species [PMC2394756]. Notably, ame-let-7 has been identified in royal jelly (RJ), along with other miRNAs common to animal bodies or products like milk [PMC3424160]. Furthermore, research has shown that expression levels of ame-miR-9a and ame-let-7 are higher in male bees compared to females, suggesting a significant role for these miRNAs in male bee development [PMC6835379].
