MiR-3960 binding sites with mRNA of human genes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The importance of miRNA in cellular regulation is gaining momentum. Therefore, it is of interest to study miRNA in human genes. Hence, the humanmRNA sequences (12,175) were searched for miRNA binding sites and 2,563predicted sites were found. We observed that the miR-3960 has more than 1000mRNA binding sites with high affinity (with ΔG/ΔGm values greater than or equal to 90%) for 375genes. The miR-3960 has 565 binding sites in the 5'UTRs and 515 sites in theCDS of mRNAs. Nucleotide sequences of the binding sites in CDS encode for polyalanine orpolyproline. It is observed that miR-3960 has binding sites in 73 mRNAs of target genesencoded transcription factors. Thus, we document predictedproperties (polysites, sites in CDS) of uncharacterized miR-3960 binding sites. The studying of the miRNA properties is important for creation of diagnostic methods of cancer.

متن کاملRunx2/miR-3960/miR-2861 Positive Feedback Loop Is Responsible for Osteogenic Transdifferentiation of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
We previously reported that Runx2/miR-3960/miR-2861 regulatory feedback loop stimulates osteoblast differentiation. However, the effect of this feedback loop on the osteogenic transdifferentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) remains unclear. Our recent study showed that miR-2861 and miR-3960 expression increases significantly during β-glycerophosphate-induced osteogenic transdiffere...

Objective(s): Autophagy-related 4B (ATG4B) plays an important role in the process of autophagy induction. However, the molecular events that govern the expression of ATG4B in this process are not well known. Materials and Methods: Human ATG4B 3'-UTR region (1377 nt) containing miR-34a/miR-34c-5p binding site was amplified by PCR. Luciferase assay was used to assess the activity of reporter gene...
