A deeper view into the significance of simple sequence repeats in pre-miRNAs provides clues for its possible roles in determining the function of microRNAs
Abstract Background The central tenet of ‘genome content’ has been that the ‘non-coding’ parts are highly enriched with ‘microsatellites’ or ‘Simple Sequence Repeats’ (SSRs). We presume that the presence and change in number of repeat unit (n) of SSRs in different genomic locations may or may not be...
