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.
Although in this case evidence for expression of either strand by northern analysis was not obtained, it was subsequently found to be orthologous to miR-137, and thus accepted as a genuine miRNA.
The volatility of miRNA genes is further indicated by members of the miR-2/miR-13 K box subfamily [ 47 ] . Seven members were previously reported that are scattered in four genomic locations on three different chromosome arms, including a cluster of three mir-2 genes on 2L and a cluster of two mir-13 genes on 3R; we also identified an additional paralog of mir-2 ( mir-2c ) that is located in the mir-13 cluster.
miR-125 is an apparent homolog of C. elegans lin-4 [ 29 ] , which functions with let-7 to regulate developmental timing in nematodes.
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).
