How can you use “mirnas” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In cases where candidate miRNAs were identifiable in non-insect species, a putative 21-24 nucleotide product was usually evident.
The specificity of this computational procedure was shown by the presence of 18 out of 24 reference miRNAs within the top 124 candidates.
The 5' ends of a large subset of experimentally derived Drosophila miRNAs were recently observed to be perfectly complementary to Brd boxes, K boxes and GY boxes, a set of 3' UTR sequence motifs involved in post-transcriptional regulation [ 47 53 54 55 ] . This suggests that, at least in Drosophila , a subset of relevant miRNA targets might be found by searching for complements to the 5'-most 8-10 nucleotides of miRNAs in 3' UTRs.
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.
Next, as our strategy relies upon conservation of primary sequence, we will have missed exceptionally divergent miRNAs, including class 6 candidates.
