Comparison of mRNA decay rate and protein stability between miRNA and non-miRNA target genes. (a) miRNA target genes on average have higher mRNA decay rates than non-miRNA target genes. (b) miRNA target genes on average have longer protein half-lives than non-miRNA target genes. Target genes predicted by three algorithms of PicTar, TargetScanS, and RNA22 are shown. Error bars indicate standard errors. p: p-values from one-side Wilcoxon rank sum tests for the median value differences between miRNA and non-miRNA target genes.
