How can you use “mir-” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In addition, a subset of the newly identified miRNAs (miR-34, miR-79, miR-87, miR-92a, miR-124b, miR-133 and miR-263a) were independently found by homology search or by informatic means and confirmed by northern analysis while this work was under review [ 34 45 ] .
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.
Surprisingly, mir-286 is the only member of this seven-miRNA cluster that is conserved in Anopheles , indicating tremendous flux in the miRNA content of this region even within the Diptera.
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.
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.
