General Information
Term miRNA ID (Ontology) SO:0000276 (Sequence Ontology)
Definition Small, ~22-nt, RNA molecule that is the endogenous transcript of a miRNA gene (or the product of other non coding RNA genes. Micro RNAs are produced from precursor molecules (SO:0001244) that can form local hairpin structures, which ordinarily are processed (usually via the Dicer pathway) such that a single miRNA molecule accumulates from one arm of a hairpin precursor molecule. Micro RNAs may trigger the cleavage of their target molecules or act as translational repressors.[ PubMed:11081512 PubMed:12592000 ]
Also Known As"INSDC_qualifier:miRNA" ; "micro RNA" ; "microRNA" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
