Molecules that Regulate Gene Expression | Types of Modification | Examples | Outcome |
---|---|---|---|
Micro-RNA | Methylation | miR9 | Associated with cancer metastasis by gene repression [37]. |
miR-34b/c | Affects the gene expression of miR-34: miR-34a, miR-34b and miR-34c; and it is associated with colorectal cancer [38]. | ||
miR-124 | Associated with brain tumor by transcription repression [39]. |
