See Fig. 1 for the sequences of these miRNAs.
Total number of times the miRNA-like sequences appeared in the clones sequenced.
Small RNA libraries from pSSK- or pCMV-SSK-transfected HEK 293 cells were constructed as described previously (40). The qualified 454 sequencing reads were approximately 16,000 for the pSSK library and 19,000 for the pCMV-SSK library, respectively.
miR-I has been identified and described before (40).
