An improvement of ComiR algorithm for microRNA target prediction by exploiting coding region sequences of mRNAs

Abstract MicroRNA are small non-coding RNAs that post-transcriptionally regulate the expression levels of messenger RNAs. MicroRNA regulation activity depends on the recognition of binding sites located on mRNA molecules. ComiR is a web tool realized to predict the targets of a set of microRNAs, sta...
