This contrasts with observations of miRNAs in vertebrates, where the majority of known miRNAs are members of paralogous gene sets [ 31 ] . The most extreme examples of this disparity are let-7 and mir-29 , which are present in single copies in Drosophila , but are represented by thirteen and six distinct human homologs, respectively.
This could explain why individual let-7 or miR-125 mutants with strong developmental defects have not yet been identified in Drosophila by genetic means.
Two of the former class were low-scoring candidates that were nonetheless conserved in Anopheles (miR-287 and miR-288), indicating that third-species conservation is in our hands a very strong indicator of a candidate gene's validity.
Other undetected miRNAs orthologous to ones cloned in other species (that is, miR-137 and miR-219, Table 1) may be present at even lower levels.
We took care to verify that our windowing parameters segregated individual miRNAs within known miRNA clusters (the mir-2 , mir-13 and mir-3 → mir-6 clusters [ 10 ] ) into distinct super-regions.
