How can you use “mir-” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
For example, 41% of miRNAs cloned from HeLa cells are variants of let-7, 28% of human brain miRNAs are variants of miR-124, and 45% of miRNAs cloned from human heart and 32% of those cloned from early Drosophila embryos are miR-1 [ 10 29 ] . In fact, it has been opined that few additional mammalian miRNAs will be easily identified by the direct cloning method [ 30 ] .
Therefore, the identification of miR-100 in flies relied upon its conservation in other species.
These include clusters containing paralogous miRNA genes (such as mir-281a and mir-281b ) others that contain unrelated genes ( mir-12/mir-283 , mir-34/mir-277 and mir-275/2L:7418176 clusters), and some that are a mixture of both ( mir-79 cluster).
Of the reference set miRNAs, only mir-2b-1 failed these filters (as a class 6 miRNA), even though it received the eighth highest score of all super-regions in the entire euchromatic sequence of the drosophilid genomes.
The largest cluster of miRNA genes in Drosophila includes six that were previously identified as the mir-3 → mir-6-3 cluster [ 10 ] . We identified two additional conserved stem-loop structures that flank mir-3 (Figure 7a), one of which ( mir-286 ) was confirmed by northern blot (Figure 5a).
