Mir-344 microRNA precursor family explained
| mir-344 |
| Symbol: | mir-344 |
| Rfam: | RF00825 |
| Mirbase Family: | MIPF0000267 |
| Rna Type: | microRNA |
| Tax Domain: | Eukaryota
|
In molecular biology, mir-344 microRNA is a short RNA molecule. MicroRNAs function to regulate the expression levels of other genes by several mechanisms. The pre-miR-344 is transcribed directly as a precursor microRNA hairpin and thus contains a 5' m7G-cap.
