Examination of artificial MiRNA mimics with centered-site complementarity for gene targeting.

BACKGROUND: MiRNA primarily acts to repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level through imperfect complementarity of its 5' region to the "seed site" in the 3' untranslated region of target mRNAs, with its "3'-supplementary site" and "center site...
