Significance of miRNA target predictions based on miRNA microarray perturbation data.

	Down-regulated genes	With 3'UTR	miTarget	Common	P-values
miR-1	96	66	2,295	24	9.47E-08
miR-124a	174	117	3,048	36	1.02E-05
miR-373	65	40	2,964	15	2.62E-04

The downregulated gene # is the number of genes downregulated by overexpression of each miRNA, reported in Lim's paper [40] and "With 3'UTR" indicates the number of downregulated genes with a 3'UTR sequence. The "miTarget" is the number of target gene candidates predicted by miTarget; the "Common" means the number of candidates shared by "With 3'UTR". The P-value was calculated by hypergeometric testing.
