Regulatory network motifs involving intragenic miRNAs. (а) A self-regulatory negative feedback loop. (b) A self-regulatory positive feedback loop. (c) Representation of a self-regulatory feedback loop in the constructed network of intergenic interactions induced by intragenic miRNAs (note that loops are removed prior to the analysis of the network). (d) A pair of genes mutually targeting each other via their intragenic miRNAs. (e) Representation of miRNA-induced intergenic interactions shown in panel (d) in the constructed network. (f) A three-node sub-network in which each pair of nodes is mutually (bidirectionally) connected.
