MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short (20–24 nucleotide) noncoding RNAs that participate in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression by affecting mRNA stability and translation in multicellular organisms. miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II as capped and polyadenylated primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs), which may be protein-coding or noncoding. The primary transcript is cleaved by Drosha RNase III to produce an approximately 70-nucleotide stem-loop precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA), which is further cleaved by cytoplasmic Dicer to yield mature miRNA and antisense miRNA star (miRNA*) products. Mature miRNA is incorporated into the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which recognizes target mRNAs through imperfect base pairing with the miRNA and most often causes translation inhibition or destabilization of the target mRNA. RefSeq represents the predicted microRNA stem-loop. [Provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
