Mir-172 microRNA precursor family explained
| mir-172 microRNA precursor family |
| Symbol: | mir-172 |
| Rfam: | RF00452 |
| Mirbase: | MI0000215 |
| Mirbase Family: | MIPF0000035 |
| Rna Type: | Gene
- miRNA

The mir-172 microRNA is thought to target mRNAs coding for APETALA2-like transcription factors.[1] It has been verified experimentally in the model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana (mouse-ear cress).[2] [3] The mature sequence is excised from the 3' arm of the hairpin.
