Genome-Wide Identification and Classification of MicroRNAs Derived from Repetitive Elements

Genome-Wide Identification and Classification of MicroRNAs Derived from Repetitive Elements

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are known for their role in mRNA silencing via interference pathways. Repetitive elements (REs) share several characteristics with endogenous precursor miRNAs. In this study, 406 previously identified and 1,494 novel RE-derived miRNAs were sorted from the GENCODE v.19 database usi...
