Figure 2. Sense-antisense binding of lin-4 miRNA to 3′ UTR of lin-14.

Figure 2

Schematic depicts the seven putative lin-4 binding sites in the 3′ UTR of lin-14. Three out of the seven sites are complementary to the seed sequence of lin-4, and the predicted base-pairings are depicted for illustration [56, 61, 109]. The sense (top) strand represents the 3′ UTR sequence, and the anti-sense (bottom) strand represents the mature lin-4 sequence. The seed region is underlined by a bar in each case.
