Schematic diagram of the double-strand break repair pathways with genes and miRNAs regulating these genes. Genes involved in a) non-homologous end joining and b) homologous recombination pathways, and miRNAs predicted to regulate these genes are shown (http://www.microrna.org/microrna/home.do, http://www.targetscan.org/, http://mirdb.org/miRDB/). Several miRNAs target the initial sensor genes of non-homologous end joining and homologous recombination repair pathways. Several more miRNAs regulate the expression of genes functioning at later stages of both non-homologous end joining and homologous recombination repair pathways.
