Integrated sequence-structure motifs suffice to identify microRNA precursors.
BACKGROUND: Upwards of 1200 miRNA loci have hitherto been annotated in the human genome. The specific features defining a miRNA precursor and deciding its recognition and subsequent processing are not yet exhaustively described and miRNA loci can thus not be computationally identified with sufficien...
