microRNA candidates

Many of the long intergenic and intronic stems predicted by EvoFold are known miRNAs (microRNAs). These show some strong characteristics: they reside in short segments and they have stems with relatively few bulges. A set of 187 novel miRNA candidates were defined on the basis of these criteria, 22 of these have since been confirmed (see table below). They can be browsed or downloaded in bulk by following the links below.
