MIR181B1 encodes a microRNA (miRNA), a short (20–24 nt) noncoding RNA that post-transcriptionally regulates gene expression by affecting mRNA stability and translation in multicellular organisms. miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II as capped, polyadenylated primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs), which may be protein-coding or noncoding. Pri-miRNAs are cleaved by the RNase III enzyme Drosha into ~70-nt stem-loop precursor miRNAs (pre-miRNAs), which are further processed by cytoplasmic Dicer to yield mature miRNA and antisense miRNA star (miRNA*) products. The mature miRNA is incorporated into the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which recognizes target mRNAs through imperfect base pairing and most often causes translational repression or destabilization of the target mRNA. RefSeq represents the predicted microRNA stem-loop. [Provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
