Example sentences for: mir-
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 ] .
In fact, we identified only four new examples ( miR-281a + b , miR-276a + b , miR-92a + b and miR-263a + b ) to add to the previously described sets of miR-6 and miR-2 / miR-13 genes.
Our observation that the temporal expression profile of miR-100 (Figure 5d) is similar to that described for let-7 and miR-125 (that is, expression is initiated during larval/pupal development and continues through adulthood [ 9 29 ] ) is consistent with probable coordinate expression of all three as a single pri-miRNA transcript, and may further implicate miR-100 in developmental timing.
We also observed that miR-286 is related at its 5' end to another experimentally verified miRNA (miR-279, Figure 5h), suggesting that they may have related functions.
Of the eleven members of the reference set that show divergence on both an arm and the loop, seven show more changes in the loop than on the non-miRNA-encoding arm and three have an equal number of changes on the loop and non-miRNA-encoding arm (Figure 2a, class 3); only one member of the reference set (miR-2b-1) shows a greater number of changes on the non-miRNA arm than the loop (Figure 2a, class 6).
