Article Synopsis
- MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate mRNA through base-pairing, and validating their interactions can be complex due to the potential for new unwanted target sites to arise from mutations.
- A Java-based tool called ImiRP has been developed to streamline the process of mutating miRNA target sites, allowing users to specify which sites to change while also avoiding the creation of illegitimate target sites.
- ImiRP helps researchers efficiently and accurately perform mutagenesis on single and multiple overlapping miRNA target sites, improving experimental outcomes in studying miRNA interactions.
