PGP:miRNA
PurposemiRNA is an essential element present in the genome for regulating the level of gene expression during human growth and development. Variations in miRNA targeting sequences as well as within miRNA sequences have been reported. The regulatory variations in miRNA expression is however not well studied. Similar to cis-regulatory variants for gene expression, cis-regulatory variants for miRNA expression may be more common than those affecting the miRNA sequence itself.
