Example sentences for: mirnas

How can you use “mirnas” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • As an example, we show alignments and RNA folds of the four insect orthologs of 2R:11128979, which all adopt canonical, high-scoring stem-loop structures and collectively display patterns of nucleotide divergence characteristic of genuine miRNAs (preponderance of divergence within the loop, slightly less divergence along a nonconserved arm, and perfect conservation of a putative miRNA-encoding arm) (Figure 6).

  • 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 ] .

  • Since unpaired nucleotides in known miRNAs have a tendency to be found in symmetric loops, the presence of asymmetric loops and bulged nucleotides was further penalized.

  • We propose then that classes 1-3 represent the normal pattern of evolutionary divergence of miRNAs, and consider Drosophila candidates that fall into these classes to represent 'good' miRNA candidates.

  • We identified several additional examples of closely linked miRNAs that are transcribed from the same strand (Figure 7d).
