TAIR Computational Description | microRNA ath-MIR157c precursor;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a microRNA that targets several SPL family members, including SPL3,4, and 5. By regulating the expression of SPL3 (and probably also SPL4 and SPL5), this microRNA regulates vegetative phase change. MicroRNAs are regulatory RNAs with a mature length of ~21-nucleotides that are processed from hairpin precursors by Dicer-like enzymes. MicroRNAs can negatively regulate gene expression by attenuating translation or by directing mRNA cleavage.Mature sequence: UUGACAGAAGAUAGAGAGCAC. Pri-mRNA coordinates for MIR157c (converted to TAIR10 based on PMID19304749): Chr3: 6244826-6243830 (reverse), length: 997 bp; exon coordinates: exon 1: 6244826 to 6244347, exon 2: 6244115 to 6243830; mature miRNA and miRNA* are located on exon 1. |
